Ava Tulimiero '22 Recruiting Profile

Whatever the situation, whatever the time, and whatever the energy  positive or negative I always try to not only connect but think of others and make them feel comfortable. I present this on and off the field in every area of my life. Whenever I step on the field I think of how I can lead my team to victory, how I can make plays and feeds to help out my teammates and uplift the energy in a negative or losing situation. I believe in taking ownership of my mistakes and take advise in how to better myself as a individual and to be a valued player to add to the amazing talent on the existing team already. Lacrosse has been a huge part of my life. Not only do I feel it has taught me how to work hard  to achieve your goals but it has given me  an increased determination to conquer my fears in the expectations  for myself when I did not think they were possible. Learning how to take corrective criticism as beneficial  and creating  a family with your teammates is all part of what lacrosse has brought to me besides of course the incredible love for the game. I hope to continue this journey in college and mentor  the younger athletes to continue their journey in the sport of lacrosse. I have spent time doing clinics with the younger students and I hope to do more. My goals are driven I am hopeful in achieving a career in either education or nursing and playing Lacrosse for my team with pride.
