Mirielle Perez '19 Recruiting Profile

My collegiate goals are to go to a school that will provide me with the best education in Business Management. I would love to play lacrosse through college because it has helped shape me into a better individual and has motivated me to strive in my academics. In my Freshmen and Sophomore year of high school, I had the chance to play with an amazing team that went undefeated for two years, and won the District Championship back to back, lead by the coaches that have shaped me into the best athlete I could be. I've learned that it's not always about winning, you can't play a game by yourself, utilize your team and their abilities, and always have fun. What makes me a good candidate for your team is that I have great leadership skills, I love to help my team improve, and I give my all in every practice and game. What makes me different in my character is that I never give up on my team, we win or lose as a team, and I will try and always push myself and team to improve and to learn from our mistakes, to pick back up wherever we fell and correct that mistake as quickly as possible.  I was raised that academics come first, and in order to play a sport you must have the grades to play that sport. Achieving good grades and being the best possible student I can be has always been one thing that I was taught, and have focused on the most throughout the years of me being in school. Being a student athlete has always been something I have enjoyed, from playing basketball and lacrosse since the 6th grade until now, I feel that I have strengthened through my learning abilities on and off the field.
