Minerva Avelar '22 Recruiting Profile

Hello! I am class of 22' and play defense. I have been playing continuously since the spring of 2021 and have made great progress in my skills and communication. I'm very coachable as an athlete and will always strive to do my best on and off the field. I'm looking forward to finding a team that I can learn from and grow with. Aside from lacrosse, I'm part of the girls' weightlifting team at my school which I've been involved in since freshman year. As a senior, I'm striving and working hard to help take our team to state and helping our JV girls/first year players grow more confident in what they can accomplish. It's been a long time in the making but I know I have more to give for lacrosse and weightlifting. 

For my future, I hope to find a job in data analysis/Data Science.  Academically I truly enjoy learning and having a good education is harped on a lot in my family and would be my number one priority at whatever college I go to. I am hoping to continue to play lacrosse in college, however at this time staying in state is the best financial option for my family. The plan is to attend a community college and get my pre-requisites out of the way then transfer and finish my degree at whatever college/university I get an opportunity to play for.
