Matt Vara
Recruit Profile
I am a strong dodger with a high lax IQ. I make heads up plays and hustle for ground balls and turnovers. Hard worker and always coachable. 941-405-7676
My passion for lacrosse began with my first touch of a stick in the 2nd grade. This passion has continued to grow with me as I developed as an athlete and a person. I began playing varsity lacrosse in 8th grade where led my team in total points and was awarded the most valuable player. In my upcoming 5th year of playing varsity athletics I plan on being a leader of the offense and my team and show my teammates the value of respect and teamwork. As a scholar-athlete, I bring the same passion and determination into the classroom. I am driven student who values education and respects my teachers and classmates. I am enrolled in all honors and AP classes and currently hold at 4.5 GPA while balancing my work as a varsity basketball and lacrosse player and maintaining a part-time job. I am confident this commitment to success will continue into my college years where I hope to be a successful lacrosse player and student.

Matt is an athletic attackman with an explosive first step. He has great vision and is incredibly tough. As good as he is, Matt's ability to ride might be his strongest attribute. His effort to earn back extra possessions is unmatched.
