Chase McKenna '23 Recruiting Profile

I am Chase McKenna.  I am a junior at Hingham High School in Hingham, Massachusetts, and will be graduating in the spring of 2023.  I am a highly motivated student-athlete, maintaining a 3.85 GPA and playing both Varsity hockey and lacrosse.  

I am currently enrolled in Honors classes, plus AP Statistics.  At school, I am a co-founder of the Finance Club and a member of the Vietnam Veterans Society.  I also volunteer for Alma Cares, Inc., a non-profit named after Alma Wahlberg that provides meals to those in need in our area.

I have been playing hockey since I was 5 years old.  I played for many years with the Boston Jr. Eagles (coached by Kent Hughes and Ian Moran) and Boston Jr. Bruins (coached by Chris Masters).  I  am currently playing for the South Shore Kings U18 “split season” team coached by Kris Omicioli.  During the high school season, I play at Hingham High for Coach Tony Messina.  I was elected a Captain for Hingham High this coming season.

In addition to hockey, I have also been playing lacrosse since I was 5.  I play for the Kings Lacrosse 2023 Blue Team.  I also play Varsity lacrosse at Hingham High.  

On the ice, I pride myself on being a complete, two-way defenseman, known for being a strong skater with a high hockey IQ.  I enjoy contributing points offensively and quarterbacking the power play.  I also love being relied upon by my coaches and team to shut down the other team's top players.  

In my free time I enjoy spending time in the gym, hanging with my teammates, and working my part-time job bussing tables in a local restaurant.

My goal is to continue to work hard to improve both in the classroom and on the ice.  I am looking to attend a college or university that will challenge me both academically and athletically.  I plan to play hockey and study business/finance.
