Recruit Profile
Varsity Captain, team player w/ exceptional speed, stick, & IQ. Highly coachable, versatile, disciplined, consistent and aggressive. Multi-sport varsity athlete w/ positive attitude. Leads by example. 107 GPA

I come from a family of college athletes and so I understand the hard work required to be a success on the college field and in the classroom. With this understanding, I am confident I have what it takes to be an asset to a college program. I am a multi-sport Varsity athlete (playing Varsity HS soccer and lacrosse since 9th grade) who has played lacrosse for as long as I can remember. I look forward every day to playing the sport I love. I have great speed and endurance and work daily to improve my stick, agility, balance and strength. I play both midfield and defense and consider myself a versatile player with great lax IQ. I am a threat in transition and love hustle plays! I also lead by example and was named Captain of the Varsity team as a rising Junior. I also take seriously my academics. I am a merit scholar enrolled in a rigorous schedule including AP courses. I enjoy challenging myself in the classroom and on the field, and consider myself a person who leads by example. I look forward to the recruiting process and playing in college.
