2018 Highlights
2018 Highlights #2Personal Statement
Lacrosse has been apart of my life since I was 12 years old and it would be an honor to continue playing after high school into college. Lacrosse not only became a sport I played, but it became a huge part of my life.
My skills in lacrosse continue to develop every year. I have good stick skills using both my left and right hand, I am fast and can continue running fast down and up the field, and I have a good view of the field; I know where I need to be. Communication is key amongst a team on and off the field and so my team and I make sure we all communicate with each other. I like criticism because I use it to get better and it makes me more coachable as well because I know that whatever level I am playing, there will always be room for improvement.
My participation in leadership and other sports like soccer has taught me to work well with other people and to communicate. I know that in order to get better, I must train during games and practices, but also in my own free time. On top of sports, I also work hard in school maintaining a 4.0 GPA while I participate in extracurricular activities such as Leadership/Student Council and clubs.
Overall, I would like to attend a college where I can not only be a part of my school and community, but also that challenges me both in lacrosse and academics.
