Hi! My name is Kate McConnachie and I love lacrosse. I made the decision to attend St Anthonys High School in hopes for a competitive fun environment. I made 3 varsity teams as a freshman (St. Anthonys Cross Country Team, Winter Track Team, and Lacrosse Team). What makes me a standout player is my want for the ball and transitional abilities. I perform in midfield as well with quick feet. I feel I am able to take risks on the field because I know I have my speed behind me. I am known for being a leader and head communicator on my teams. In addition I made the Nassau Regional Lacrosse Team, American Select Team, and Elite 100 in 2021. I hold myself to high academic standards by taking both AP World History and AP Biology as a freshman. Along with 4 honors classes and maintaining an unweighted 4.0 GPA. Sophomore year I will be taking AP Chemistry, AP European History, and Business Classes. I have found success in the St. Anthonys Science Friar Quest Program as I received the top 10% in the Nation for my Toshiba Exploravision Writing Project. I like to think of myself as a leader on and off the field as I was chosen to be on the St. Anthonys Leadership Team (SALT). I
am beyond excited to be a part of this program to be a welcoming sophomore helping freshmen feel comfortable in their new environment. In addition I have been selected to be on Friar Faithful to give tours of St. Anthonys possible incoming families. Furthermore I am in 5 other clubs. Including Future Business Leaders Club as I am interested in pursuing this further. I hope to carry on with all of my programs going forward and my goals of playing lacrosse in college. Thank you!
