Profile
Coachable player with strong Lax IQ, disciplined and humble multi-sport athlete. Eagle Scout candidate (anticipate receiving in early 2022).

I am a junior at Seton Hall Prep in NJ. I have been playing lacrosse since I was five years old. Most of my experience has been defense; however I began playing LSM in 8th grade. I enjoy the combination of both positions because of the physicality, speed and excitement of the transition from offense, to locking off midfielders and attackmen. As a freshman, I made the Junior Varsity lacrosse team at SHP. I have been playing for BlueStar lacrosse for two years. In 2020, I was invited to play in the 2020 Club Lacrosse Nationals in Florida. I also run Fall cross country and play Box lacrosse for my Club and School teams. I take four honors classes (3.94 GPA). Outside of sports, I play trumpet in SHPs jazz band, and for fun, I take electric guitar lessons. I have also earned the rank of Eagle Scout. My Eagle Project was based off my love for lacrosse. I am actively involved in my church ministry as an altar server, a position that I have held for the last seven years and serve on SHPs ministry team as a lector (reader).
