I started playing lacrosse in kindergarten and have loved the game ever since. I play close defense and pride myself on my ability to pick up every ground ball that comes my way. I clear the ball with ease. I have very good hand eye coordination and pick off more passes than anyone on the teams I have played on. I strive to be the best in both academics and athletics. I am a hard worker on and off the field. I feel that it is extremely important to give back to the community.For instance, I have helped special needs children learn the sport of lacrosse. I have a positive attitude and consider myself coachable and a good teammate. I also enjoy playing a variety of sports in addition to lacrosse such as football and basketball. I not only challenge myself on the field, but off the field as well, academically, by taking all honors and AP classes.
