Grace Walter
Recruit Profile
I am a committed finisher who loves a challenge, strives to be great, and wants the ball with the game on the line.
I have been called a "finisher" for most of my athletic career - whether basketball or lacrosse. My coaches have said I have a knack for being accurate with my shooting and passing, pride myself in working hard in everything that I do because I am really competitive, and have been the one to get the opportunity in big moments.
I started playing lacrosse when I was 7 and I was the leading scorer throughout my young years as a midfielder. I played on a 7th grade travel team as a 5th grader and was one of the leading scorers. When I moved to Big 4 HHH, I was a leading scorer as an Midfield/Draw/Attacker as well. I played on the 8th grade middle school team as a 7th grader - was also the lead scorer/assister with 134 points and was one of the team captains.
I have never played travel Field Hockey as a result of my Lacrosse and Basketball commitments, but I made the varsity field hockey team at Penn Charter as a Freshman where I played Defense and developed a ton over the year, became a starter, and served an critical role on the team. That was one of my favorite accomplishments because I knew I could play, but worked extra hard to become a significant contributor on the team.
I also was the leading scorer on my AAU basketball team from 5-8th grade, where we won or placed second in several ICBA Championships and Regional/State Tournaments. Although my strengths were as an outside shooter, I often played the 5 position and was able to learn a lot of skills that have helped me with lacrosse - first step, balance, fakes, control, crossover/spin dribble/etc., sealing defenders, playing against more physical and larger 5's than I am, and ultimately, I learned a lot about dedication and perseverance as I transitioned to a role that wasn't something I had ever played (was mostly a 2/3 guard). A fun fact was that as a 7th grader I won our middle school co-ed Knock Out competition against 7/8/9 grade basketball players!
