Brady Ruffalo '22 Recruiting Profile

For as long as I can remember, my goal has been to play college and professional lacrosse. I have enjoyed playing the sport for many years starting at the young age of 5.  Because I enjoyed it so much I began playing box lacrosse at age 11, that way I could play lacrosse year round. I also played for travel clubs for 7 years.  I aspire to play professional lacrosse and coach lacrosse one day  while working in the field of physical therapy.  Athletics has been a part of my life always, so as a profession, I would like to become a physical therapist. The idea of helping others especially athletes seems like a perfect career path for me.  

I would make a great candidate for any team because of my hard working, don't quit attitude.  I work hard and I'm extremely coachable. My box lacrosse experience brings  another level of toughness, finishing, and lacrosse IQ to my game. It has strengthened my stick skills and shooting which makes for a great attackman.  This past summer, I had the amazing opportunity to play in the Upstate Collegiate Box Lacrosse League. This experience gave me a chance to play box lacrosse at the collegiate level.  It took me all the way to San Jose, California for the US Box Nationals.  I played with and against some of the best lacrosse players in the nation.  As you can see, I would make a great addition to any team.  I look forward to continuing to play the greatest game and the "fastest game on two feet" in  college.
