Cornelius Pettinga '19 Recruiting Profile

My name is Cornelius “Neil” Pettinga, and I am a proud member of the class of 2019 at University High School of Indiana, where-- as a freshman-- I helped start the school’s lacrosse program. To be clear, when I say “proud” to attend University, I want to emphasize that I chose my high school first for its academics and challenged myself to make my sport of lacrosse a reality at University--- a task I accomplished and have continued to maintain. In addition to playing an integral role with the fledgling University team, I also play for True Lacrosse of Indiana. In addition to lettering twice in lacrosse (and winning the Mental Attitude Award my sophomore year, and distinguishing myself as #3 in ground balls for the Indiana High School Lacrosse Athletic Assocaition), I twice lettered at University High School in cross country as a varsity runner,  and basketball where I proudly serve the Trailblazers as team manager.

Thank you for your interest in my credentials and in my highlight tape.  https://youtu.be/O5RiLggff5Q

Committed and accepted to attend and play for the Little Giants of Wabash College! WAF!!
