Ryan Schock '26 Recruiting Profile

I discovered my love for lacrosse when I first picked up a stick in 6^th grade at 11 years old. Unfortunately, a few practices was as far as I could get due to the covid pandemic.  I couldn’t wait until I was able to try again - at 13 years old and in 8^th grade.  After playing multiple sports I found my true calling.  The position of a goalie isn’t just about stopping shots; it’s about mental fortitude, split-second decisions, and unwavering commitment. From the moment I committed to being a goalie, I embraced the challenge. 

Off the field, I’m coachable and always seeking ways to improve my game. Whether it’s analyzing opponents’ shooting patterns, fine-tuning my stance and footwork, or just non-stop wall ball, I’m relentless in my pursuit of excellence.

In the offseason, you’ll find me fishing and/or hiking – enjoying the great outdoors. I strive to be the best fisherman I can be and to trek as far as I can on each hike I partake in. In the classroom, I’m equally driven, maintaining a balance between academics and athletics.

Now, as I begin my recruiting journey, I’m excited to take my passion for lacrosse to the next level. I envision myself diving for saves, communicating with my defense, and celebrating victories with my teammates. Being a goalie isn’t just about stopping shots; it’s about being the leading the team and bringing us all together.

So, college coaches, please consider this my declaration: I’m ready to bring my A-game, protect the cage, and leave it all on the field. I look forward to having a conversation with you and determining if I am a good fit for your lacrosse program.
