Recruit Profile
Tough, gritty and versatile three sport Varsity athlete who hates to lose and thrives under pressure. Team leader with a strong work ethic, who loves to be coached and challenged.

At an early age I developed a love for competition and sports. My father was the HS Varsity basketball coach in town and I heard many candid conversations with players about work ethic leading to production on the court. I am a true believer in the harder you work the better the results I will see. What makes that so important to me is I HATE TO LOSE. I played most sports early on, but it was in 3rd grade that I first got the lacrosse stick in my hands and realized this was the sport for me. By 4th grade I was focusing on basketball/lacrosse playing both sports year round and many times leaving one club game to go to another club game in a different sport. I spent MS continuing to fall in love with Lacrosse and it gradually became my favorite sport by a long shot. I love using my ability to quickly process information and my instincts, to make plays that surprise both my coaches and the opposing teams. I played midfield throughout MS leading my team in goals and assists each season and eventually adapted to a defensive role on the Steps 2024 Blue team. This past season as a freshman in HS I tried field hockey for the first time in the fall and was captain of the freshman team and moved up for a few Varsity games. I followed that up with being the 7th girl on the Varsity Basketball team and come spring was a starter on the Varsity Lacrosse team. I played all 3 levels of the field and scored a handful of goals while leading our team in forced turnovers. The best part was our team won our first ever Conference Championship! Academically I have a 4.0 GPA and I make it a point to win in the classroom the same way I like to win on the field. I give back to the younger kids by helping run Lax clinics in town and I created a position where I am a liason between the HS team and the youth program at committee meetings. I win because I work and I work because I love to win.
