Jacob Sichlau
Recruit Profile
An aggressive, aware player capable of creating offense by shooting, dodging, or feeding. Team leader on and off the field.
I am a 4 year varsity player, and a 3 year starter. Going in to my junior year, I was chosen as the captain of the Oak Park and River Forest HS lacrosse team. I take pride in my abilities as an outside shooter and feeder, I am also capable of dodging and finishing inside. I primarily play as a midfielder on both sides of the ball, but I am comfortable on attack as well. Outside of lacrosse, I have a 4.48 weighted and 4.0 unweighted GPA (4 point scale), and scored a 33 on my most recent ACT. This year I am taking 4 AP classes (Calculus, American History, Spanish, American Lit) and I am scheduled to take 5 next year (Computer Science, Physics, Economics, U.S. Government, English). In extracurriculars, I am the vice president of my school's business club, and I also participate in a service club for a battered children's home. With my club team, East Ave Lacrosse, I both play on the top team and coach in the youth program.
