Hunter Koch '22 Recruiting Profile

My goal is to go to college and play what I love everyday at the highest level possible. I want to be the first in my family as well as the state to go to a division 1 school doing something that many people can not do. I want to set a pathway for kids like me in Wheeling, because right now even though it is growing in popularity it still isn’t a big sport. I want to show people that it is possible to come out of my city and become great at what you do if you put work into it. This is part of the reason I consider myself a top candidate. The other reason is that I want to prove to everyone how great of a player I can be and can soon become and grow into. I am different from other players because    where I am from has built my character growing up and my family around me has shown me the meaning of hard work. I am also the only freshman to start on attack for my high school in their lacrosse history, and with that privilege I became an All-State honorable mention in my freshman year and I take advice from everyone that knows the game of lacrosse and hockey to make me a better player in both. My mom has always expressed how important education is for you and that is why I make high honors every grading period in a school known for academics.   I will always push myself both in the classroom and on the field to become a better player and person.
