Connor Eastman '19 Recruiting Profile

Sports have always been a key component to the balance in my life.  I have always used sports to keep fit, clear my mind, satisfy my competitive nature, and more.  I am a better student and worker when I have sports in my life.  I wish to continue this balance by playing college lacrosse as I achieve the next level of success in college.

I am a multi-sport athlete, which today, is pretty unique.  I have played soccer for the Colorado Rapids Youth Soccer Club as a high level competitive player since age 4.  I have played lacrosse as a high level competitive player for Denver Lacrosse Club and Stapleton Jets since age 7.  What you will find with me is that I am:

• All for What's Best For the Program - I have played when and where needed.  As an example, this year I made the Denver East Varsity soccer team but was asked to provide leadership and captain the JV team.  I did so to a 16-0 undefeated season and then returned to Varsity to contribute to our Colorado State 5A Final run.
• Multi-Sport and Position Athleticism - I have played at the elite level of both Soccer and Lacrosse in multiple positions winning (and graciously losing) state finals along the way.
• Experienced Captain - I have provided leadership to multiple teams through winning and losing times.
• Very Coachable - I understand the value of continuous learning and different points of view.  All influences contribute to my increased soccer and lacrosse IQ.  I have attended several off season camps - from UCLA to University of Denver -  to increase my knowledge and skills and get different coaching points of view.
• Good Student - I have excelled in the classroom taking many honors and AP level classes while maintaining an "Academic All-State" ranking in Colorado.
• Hard Working - I work hard at all practices and games and also take great pride in holding down a summer job at True Value Hardware in Denver while being a student athlete.
