Recruit Profile
Athletic, aggressive, sound man-to-man defender, high team defense IQ

I have an aggressive style of play, win a high percentage of contested ground balls because of my lower body strength, and push the ball fast in transition. As an SSDM I'm able to match feet and sticks with dodgers, make explosive moves, and generate turnovers. My defensive teammates trust me to play smart, team defense and rarely require a slide. I love to send a message to opposing offenses by winning early match ups with opposing dodgers. I honestly believe that I'm one of the best in the country at what I do.

Last season I set a school record by averaging 6 points per game. Regarding my broader athletic background, I've been playing lacrosse since 7th grade and have been the starting varsity quarterback at Lake Park High School in Roselle, IL since my sophomore season. Academically, I have a 5.04 GPA and regularly take AP courses.
