Personal Statement
I have had a lacrosse stick in my hand since as long as I can remember, my dad is from Upstate NY and naturally it was his
sport growing up and he taught my brother and i. I come from an athletic family, I am the oldest of 3 and we all play
travel sports. I played Club Hockey, soccer, basketball and lacrosse. I joined my first travel lacrosse team in 2nd grade when we
moved to the suburbs and I still play with the same kids that I call my friends. It was great to win the IL State Championship with
my team and childhood friends. truly a dream come true. I was chosen Rookie of the Year from my HS team this Spring Season, and
it shows all my hard work paid off. I am known as a leader of my lacrosse team, i lead more by example of working hard in practice and games. My goal is to find a strong academic school that I can play lacrosse at.
