Hope Elliott Van Nice
Recruit Profile
5'7 athletic high-attack / midfielder with speed, size, very fast shot, high gameIQ, and strong stick skills. Highly coachable, team-first player who adds positive energy/spirit to teams.
I started playing lacrosse when I was 8 and fell in love with the sport!!! At 10, I was selected to the T-3 All Star team, a state-wide NJ team that selected the best players from the club's regional teams. At 14, I was selected to the 2019 WPLL Futures team, and at 15 was reselected by the WPLL for their 2020 Futures Team.
After missing my freshman year high school season due to COVID, I started on high-attack for my high school varsity team as a sophomore and contributed to our team's Shore Conference championship with 18 goals for the season. During my Junior year, I finished the regular season leading my team in goals (54) and total points (63).
I have also traveled internationally to play, having joined the All Lax Touring Team and served as an ambassador for the sport by playing against local clubs across Ireland.
I currently play midfield for my club lacrosse team (All Lax Select) and high attack for my high school varsity team (Rumson FairHaven). Outside of lacrosse, I run Varsity winter track (55m, 200m, 400m, and 4x200m and 4x400m relays), and qualified for the NJSIAA State Championships and Eastern States Championships my freshman year. The same year I was awarded "Outstanding Freshmen" and I also played JV soccer.
I am currently taking almost all honors classes and maintaining an unweighted 4.0/A+ average (unweighted) and was recently inducted into the National Honor Societies for Science, Spanish, English, History, and Math. During the pandemic, I also started my own nonprofit called Play4 (www.play4.gg), which is a social good lifestyle apparel brand that supports other nonprofits that youth athletes create about!
