Austin Smith
Recruit Profile
A team player with a strong lax IQ, very coachable and disciplined. Will never give up on plays and will always give 110%.
I started playing lacrosse when I was 10 years old. I tried out most positions except goalie my first two years. I like the position of defender best. My eighth grade team (U15) won the North Shore Lacrosse league championship in 2013. My club team in 2015 won the Rising Stars division at the Bluegrass LacrosseFest in Louisville to earn an invite to the Dick's lacrosse national tournament.
I take pride as a one-on-one defender. I also like my off-ball awareness looking to double team the ball carrier.
I ran cross country my freshman and sophomore years. I dedicated myself to lacrosse my junior year to attend lacrosse showcases and prospect days.
Academically, I've taken honors math and currently taking AP Physics, AP Calculus, AP Computer Science, honors engineering and physical education.
