I am a multi-sport athlete with a passion for lacrosse. I primarily play midfield; but can play other positions as well. I love to play the midfield because I can use my speed and passing ability to move the ball around to my teammates. I play both club and school lacrosse. My high school team/program has consistently been one of the best in the state and region. I've used the time from this missed season to improve myself. Since March I've put in a 35+ quality miles a week of running, hit the wall and worked on my lacrosse skills. I'm also learning to play golf for my senior seminar project. In addition to my club team practices/tournaments I qualified for the WPLL Summit Ohio team and am playing at the Inside Lacrosse Committed Academy tournament. In HS I've done many sports including swimming and XC. I had a pretty good XC season last year with a new PR for 5k (21:55) and conference (OCC) honorable mention award, Im working to break 21 minutes this season. While sports are a big part of my life; I work hard at school and hope to study in STEM/medical/technology areas.
I had full summer schedules in 2018 and 2019 taking online classes in geometry and health to get ahead while also attending LAX tournaments, clinics and practices and training for the fall XC seasons. I recently won a Handshake America Scholarship for grit and perseverance. https://www.handshakeamerica.org/
I am registered and qualified with the NCAA, I actively volunteer with my church, my community and have even done volunteer work in China for MeToWe (https://www.metowe.com). During the school year I have balanced aggressive course loads with sports including off season strength and agility conditioning and indoor lacrosse in multiple leagues.
