Caroline Dillon
Recruit Profile
Strong LaxIQ. I’m well rounded on and off the field. I’m a coachable athlete and I put my teammates first.
I began my lacrosse career in the third grade when I joined the recreation program Shark River Lacrosse, in NJ. I played at Shark River Lax for 6 seasons and won the Coastal Lacrosse League Championship three times.
I am currently in my fifth season with Carolina Fever in NC and will also being playing for Carolina United this fall.
I have also played travel lacrosse for T3 Elite Shore, DewLax North and MadDog Shore. I spent 12 years as a competitive All Star Cheerleader before stopping to play Lacrosse year round. I have also played Softball and have run Track/Cross Country as well.
I feel my strongest asset as a defender is my physicality when on man-on-man defense. I do not shy away from the ball and will do whatever it takes to support my goalie.
As a Freshman at Saint John Vianney HS, I started every Varsity game as a defender, and occasionally also floated to midfield. While being a full-year athlete during my first year of HS, I was able to maintain a 4.2 GPA. In the spring of 2018 I was awarded one of the school's highest academic honors; High Honor Roll of Distinction, for maintaining at least a 3.8 (in my case higher) GPA for the entire year. I was also recognized for Academic Excellence in Foreign Language for Italian.
During my Sophomore year, I started every Varsity game as a defender and also played at midfield. I was awarded numerous academic awards including High Honor Roll of Distinction for the second year in a row; membership into the Foreign Language Honor Society for Italian and recognized for my volunteerism both in and outside of school with a Gold and White Award.
Durning the fall semester of my Junior year, I was inducted into the National Honor Society.
I also belong to various clubs such as, The Key Club, Italian Club, Pre Med Club, and the More Than Special Club. I am most proud of the last one, as our goal is to help students with special needs. My younger brother is on the autism spectrum and I am always willing to advocate for him and others on the spectrum, so the More Than Special Club affords me that opportunity.
I aspire to be an Orthodontist when I have completed my undergraduate and post graduate studies.
