Lacrosse has been a very important part of my life for many years.

Not only do I love playing lacrosse I love playing other sports; such as field hockey, squash, and basketball. I love being in a team environment and being able to encourage someone to be the best they can be and have them do the same for me. Being on many different sports teams has helped me create some of my best bonds that I will never want to lose.

Grace is a coach’s dream because she leaves it all out on the field no matter what. Mentally and physically she pushes through any obstacle, while lifting up her teammates along the way. Grace has a strong presence on the defensive end and her game continues to grow each year. She is an excellent crease defender and communicator, and she is a huge asset in offensive transition. In addition to being a standout defender, Grace has recently become one of our primary drawers. Her size and quickness in the draw circle make her a force to be reckoned with and she will continue to develop in this area. Grace is a tremendous addition to any team not only because of her skills, but because of her attitude. She genuinely enjoys the game of lacrosse and it shows in the way she plays. She is eager to learn on and off the field. Grace is a natural leader and a caring teammate. There’s no doubt that she will find success playing lacrosse at the college level.

Grace is an extremely versatile and unique player. Her confidence and positive attitude is felt through the entire team and staff. She truly believes that her team can do anything and beat anyone. Defensively, Grace makes great contact and really forces the attacker to do what she wants. With great game IQ she excels in communication and seeing one step ahead. With vision and communication comes numerous interceptions and groundballs. She is not afraid to leg the ball to the offensive side. Grace also enjoys getting into the offensive mix. She is a strong dodger who turns the corner and finishes with an extremely hard shot. Lacrosse really brings Grace joy as loves being out on the field competing along side her friends.
