Recruit Profile
Aggressive and Physical, Team Focused, Coachable, Multi-sport athlete, High lax IQ, Hardworking

I started playing youth lacrosse when I was 7 years old. I was immediately in love with the game. As soon as we were allowed to use D poles I knew I wanted to be a defense men. I played Prior Lake youth lacrosse through 7th grade. In 8th grade I was brought up to the high school teams.

In 2019, I played on the Prior Lake High School JV team as a 10th grader. I quickly started earning playing time with the varsity team and was selected to play on the section and state tournament varsity roster. We went 10-3 in the regular season last year. We went 3-0 in our section tourney and we won the section 6 championship for the 3rd straight year. We went 3-0 in the state tournament and went on to win the Minnesota State High School League Boys Lacrosse State Championship in 2019. I played on that team and earned a varsity letter.

I also play on the 36 Lacrosse 2021 club team. Team 36 has given me the opportunity to play lacrosse for top-rated coaches and with some of the most talented and skilled players in the state. Traveling throughout the U.S. with 36 Lacrosse has not only provided me with rewarding memories but also the experience of playing at an elite level with some of the best players and teams in the country.

I excel at being a two-way player and being a physical defense men who causes turnovers. I am a skilled ball handler who tends to pick off a lot of passes. I am also able to play LSM. In addition, I have a strong work ethic on and off the field. I use my lacrosse IQ and ability to defend in multiple defensive strategies to be very adaptive on the field.

I am enrolled in the Minnesota Center for Advanced Professional Studies (MNCAPS) Foundations of Business program 50% of my school day and attend high school for my core subjects. MNCAPS is a professional, hands-on immersion program that includes education, industry, and community-based learning experiences where students earn college credits. I also am a member of the Prior Lake High School Distributive Education Club of America (DECA). DECA comprises marketing students that want to further build their business and leadership skills through academic conferences and competitions. I won at the regional competition 2 times as well as the state competition.
