Colin Fitzpatrick '15 Recruiting Profile

I want to play at the highest level possible.  I want to play for a strong lacrosse program with good coaching.  I feel I have a lot of upside in my game. I continue to work to get better and know I am going to gain in size and strength.   I have a well rounded game and with some more size will be a greater weapon in the future.  I can play midfielder or attack.  I can use either hand and my shot is strong from both sides.  I am passionate about my sport and will do whatever it takes to become the best player possible.  I think my field vision is excellent making me a strong feeder.  I am unselfish, but willing and not afraid to take the shot when it is available. As a Sophomore I led my high school team in goals and assists, my role now is that of a leader as I was one of the three players to be named Captain.  This is usually given to Seniors, but I was happy to get that honor as a Junior.  In my Junior year I tried to help make our team better by doing the things that are best for the team and not just for me and my statistics. I  play best against the top teams for Club or High School.

Academically, I am a good student right at a 3.5.   I understand how important academics are and wish to go to a school that not only lets me play lacrosse but can provide a great education.  I am interested in a possible business degree with a concentration in marketing.  

I think having me on a team will make other players better.  Playing with more skilled players and for good coaches will make me a better player.  I decided in eighth grade to give up baseball (pitcher and shortstop) to concentrate on lacrosse and I have never looked back.
