Dominic Vitiello '18 Recruiting Profile

I love all sports as I play Lacrosse, Football and Basketball.  Lacrosse is where my passion is.  I am a defense man for my school team, Rye High School ~ Rye NY and my club team Westchester Predators. While I struggle and have to work very hard academically, I excel in my athletic ability.  Academically I have struggled since Kindergarten.  Even with my 504 in place, tutoring, resource accommodations by my school, etc. I struggle to maintain an eighty average.  It is with the support of my teachers and resources that have helped me to understand I am doing a great job because of the effort set forth in my studies.  On the other hand, my ability to play sports comes easier to me than others.  I understand that people are better at certain things than others and sports is my strong points.  I put my heart and soul forth and play my best.  I was once told by a coach of mine that the passion I have can not be taught and will serve me well in the future.  That makes me proud of who I am and what I can accomplish even when something may be a struggle.  It makes me believe in myself and believe that I will be able to achieve all the things I desire.  With all this said,  I feel that I would be a asset to your team and to your college.
