Lyana Thomas '17 Recruiting Profile

What makes me a good candidate for your team would be the expectations I have for myself. I'm not one to 'settle' for things. I fight for what I want and I'm a strong believer of the saying "You get out what you put in". I was a starter on the high school varsity team my freshman year, and was made captain of the varsity team my sophomore year. I was also made captain for my club tournament team, Space Coast Boom Elite, this past summer (2015). It was our first year running and we made it as one of the top 3 teams in 5/5 tournaments we participated in. I plan on continuing my lacrosse career as long as I can and playing in college. To prepare for that, I'm currently in my school's Junior Army ROTC program as a Staff Sergeant which is a Non-Commision officer leadership role and working to be the First Sergeant for my company my upcoming junior year. I am also a student in our Business and Finance Academy, taking mostly honors classes. I do a lot of volunteer work as much as possible and I keep my GPA at a 3.4 and higher. I strive to be the very best I can be. I'm very committed and loyal, responsible, understanding, and hardworking. I currently work at Viera's Lacrosse and Sport shop. I enjoy preparing the younger boys and girls for the future lacrosse careers. I participate in all the camps I can.
