In my 6 years of lacrosse experience I have been fortunate enough to play on several travel lacrosse teams and played an important role on my varsity high school team as a freshman. As a freshman, on a returning state championship team, I spent practice after practice going against the best attackmen in the state of North Carolina. It has allowed me to not only become a better lock down defensemen, but to understand the game in a way that has made me just as good off the ball.

As a defense men, I take pride in playing tough both on and off the ball, playing tight man-to-man defense or sliding to assist. As the captain of my travel lacrosse teams, I take on the responsibility of directing the defense, making defensive adjustments if an opponent scores and playing a key role in leading both settled and unsettled clears. I am often the player who clears the ball over the mid-line and sparks a quick offense that leads to a goal on many occasions.

I am looking for a school that challenges me both academically and physically and provides me with an opportunity to make an impact in the community. My experiences and my abilities on the lacrosse and football field have prepared me to work hard for what I want both academically and as a member of a team. Off the field I play a key role as a student liaison in the PTSA which allows me with the opportunity to provide a voice for almost 2,300 students in my school. I hope to extend my lacrosse and academic career at an institution with an impressive academic reputation in sports medicine/Physical Therapy and an established lacrosse program.
