Personal Statement
My name is Jakob Smit and I am a 2020 defenseman interested in playing college level lacrosse. I have participated in team sports since I was 4 and have learned the value of teamwork both on and off the field
My biggest strength as a player is my lacrosse IQ that has been supplemented by my basketball and football experience. I also have great stick skills that I work on year round and I am always looking for ways to improve my game.
Many people talk about how they want to get better at a particular thing (sports, academics etc...) but I know that the only way to achieve that is through hard work and perseverance.
As part of my college experience I hope to gain a great education, as well as, grow as a person and lacrosse player. Thank you for considering me as a potential addition to your program.
