Delfina Gonzalez Fontan '24 Recruiting Profile

I was born to play hockey. I play for the Lomas Athletic Club (Buenos Aires, Arg, from where many Leonas emerged, including Alejandra Gulla, one of my current coaches, together with the coaching staff of the current Argentina National Team, led by Francisco Ferrara) since I was 9 years old, and I started my sports career in the under-10 category, rising through the levels to the present, where I play forward (in any attacking position) for the club's U18 team, playing in the annual AHBA U18-5th tournament division (main tournament in Buenos Aires, Argentina), of which Lomas Athletic is the recent 2022 champion First Division. I travel to USA frequently, and I play for the U19 Florida United FH Team (Miami, FL)

I am a powerful forward, dynamic, difficult to defend inside the area, with a great scoring instinct and who plays as part of a team. As for my attitude, I am a committed player, who seeks the best version of herself day by day (I love training), and who puts her role within the team before individual brilliance.

But since I know that academic performance is as important as sports performance (just as I complete my High School classes, I also do it with my daily physical training), I have maintained excellent academic results throughout my high school, currently being in 11th year the 3rd best average of my class (full-time trilingual English school).
