My name is Ellie McClelland and I am a 2024 midfielder for New Albany High School and Major Force Lacrosse. When I first picked up a lacrosse stick in 3rd grade, I knew it was the sport for me. I began playing club in 7th grade and started traveling to tournaments on the East Coast. I am now a starter as a freshman on my high school varsity team, which has continually been one of the top teams in the state. I am a very diligent, hard-working team player, and am very versatile on the field. I have been working very hard to achieve my dream of playing lacrosse at the collegiate level. I have an Instagram account, @ellielax, where I like to showcase my skills and promote the game to others around me. Just as I like challenging myself on the lacrosse field, I also challenge myself in the classroom. I am taking honors classes and have a 4.20 GPA. Lacrosse is my passion, but I make sure I prioritize my grades too.
