Emma Hanson '19 Recruiting Profile

As a student-athlete, I strive to be the best in the classroom and on the field. Being a part of a military family has taught me the value of determination, hard-work and resiliency.  I am a multi-sport varsity letter winning athlete, who is coach-able and works well with other student-athletes.

I am different than my peers as I strive to lead and have shown leadership in my community as part of the class cabinet at my school, within my church as a team mentor, as well as proving self responsibility by managing basketball teams.

I play a tenacious style of defense, lead with speed and a never give up attitude. I do not give up when I am tired, my positive attitude and my work ethic obtained from years of cross country running keep me in the game mentally. There is nothing I love more than being on the field with my team. 

I aspire to play lacrosse at the collegiate level, at a school that offers me a strong sense of campus community, rigorous academic opportunities, and the skills needed to find a successful career path.

In my free time I enjoy weight lifting and running. Outside of school and sports, I enjoy reading, traveling with my family, and spending time with dog Fletcher.
