I started playing lacrosse in kindergarten. When my Mom told me I was playing lacrosse I really though she meant The cross (like the Red Cross). I eventually figured out it was a game with lacrosse sticks and a goal. In kindergarten you pretty much just run around like chickens with their heads cut off. As I grew up I continued to play lacrosse and it wasn't until 3rd grade that I figured out I loved everything about the sport. In 3rd grade I started playing club lacrosse. I loved the way that once I stepped on the field my mind instantly cleared and I focused on what was around me.

Lacrosse quickly became my whole life and I love it. I made the JV team as a 8th grader and hope to be on Varsity as a Sophomore. In the fall I play tennis and I'm 1st Doubles. As a 9th Grader I'm in CC Geometry Honors, Living Environment R (biology), World History 9 Honors, English 9 Honors, Spanish 2 and Design/Draw-PLTW. The balance between sports and school is definitely something that not everyone can do but I can confidently say that I can juggle both worlds very well. In lacrosse I'm working on many things like being more comfortable with using both hands for just about everything on the field. Off the field I'm very interested in working on building muscle, strength and endurance so that can translate to my ability on the field. I'm working more on my defensive capabilities for one-on-one defense which is not an easy task. On the offensive side I'm always working on building my dodging and finishing capabilities. Playing lacrosse and getting a great education at any great school is an absolute dream of mine.
