My name is Mikaela Mooney, I live on the South Shore of Long Island, NY, and I am both a determined student and lacrosse player who is interested in cultivating a future in the classroom and on the field. On the lacrosse field, I am a strong, fast, left-handed attackman who possesses superb dodging ability and a powerful shot. I am a competitive person, but the attribute which distinguishes me most is my dauntless work ethic. I have spent countless hours practicing my craft and playing for both my school team (Bayport Blue Point High School ) and for the Legacy Travel team. I am proud of the progress I have made and I have realized that hard work has been the key to my success. I have taken the lessons that I have learned on the field and I have translated them to the classroom. I am just as determined in the classroom as I am on the field, and I study just as hard as I practice. I am excited to further develop my athletic and academic skill set. I am determined to secure the best future for myself as possible and lacrosse and academics have shaped my path thus far.
