Recruit Profile
Under Armour All-America 2020 Team. 90% Draw Controls My height (5'10) and Athleticism makes me a Game Changer!!! Coachable and Versatile with a High Lax IQ!!!

I started playing lacrosse in 2nd grade and I enjoy learning from my coaches and teammates with a team first mentality and will play where needed for the Team Win!!! I'm an aggressive hard working multi-sport athlete who plays for my high school's Lacrosse, Tennis, and Track & Field teams.

"A midfielder out of New Jersey, has a huge advantage over many due to her height and speed, making her a definitive threat on both sides of the ball. Laura is most noticeable during transition due to her vision of the field. She is always able to find the ball and start the plays on attack. Not only does Laura have remarkable stick skills, on the defensive end her footwork and 1v1 play makes her a strong defender as well". - 3 Players to watch at the Apex Girls Fall Showcase, Player Spotlight

As passionate as I am about playing lacrosse, I am also about serving my community. As a Girl Scout Silver Award recipient, I have been an active member in giving back since Kindergarten. My troop was recognized for building a library for a charter school in Paterson, NJ. I was also recognized by the NJ Freeholders for my work with Project Interact for our work with disabled young adults. I am currently working to finish my Girl Scout Gold Award by the end of the year. Additionally, I enjoy coaching and mentoring a team of Ridgewood's next gen lax players in the REC league.

My goal is to play in the Olympics! Go team USA!
