Shannon Murphy
Recruit Profile
Coachable and versatile player, team player, strong with both hands, strong Lax IQ, aggressive, multi-sport athlete, determined.
I started lacrosse in 5th grade, later than many of my teammates, but I quickly caught up to everyone's skill level by the end of my first spring season. I am comfortable with feeding using both hands along with dodging and shooting. I was on my High School Varsity team for lacrosse as a freshman, and I was also the first freshman to make varsity for field hockey in the program's 15 year history. I currently have a 4.031 GPA and am projected to graduate with around a 4.2 GPA. In my 2021 spring season, I received the All-Conference and Academic All-State awards along with state records of two games with 7 goals each and one game with 5 assists.

Shannon Murphy is one of the "most valuable players" that's ever come through our program. Shannon epitomizes the complete player. Mature, focused, driven, hard-working, dedicated, skillfull, agressive & SMART! She is brilliant in the classroom (4.0 ++), in the film room & on the field. Shannon is highly skilled with a great stick, fantastic dexterity, excellent dodging ability, keene vision & amazingly high/intuitve lax IQ. She is a true student of the game. Shannon is one of the most dedicated, passionate, pleasant and team oriented athletes I have ever coached. In addition to being a very athletic dual-sport athlete (field hockey) with has great offensive skills, Shannon is known for her RELENTLESS and undying commitment to redefend. She is the most impressive and productive (+/- scores & takeways -over- made turnovers) player I have coached in the last 5 year; in fact many of Shannons points come off takeaways on the clear. But Shannon's best skills are her "human skills" & strong character. Shannon is all about positive culture, team unity, team first mentality, great attitude, pleasant personality & NO drama, NO negativity. Shannon will be a phenomenal addition & contributor to any program. Top 50 D1 Prospect
