Recruit Profile
Coachable, hard working, determined, aggressive, multi- sport athlete, team player, strong lax IQ, fast.
I started playing lacrosse in 5th grade and ever since I’ve always had a stick in my hand. I immediately knew that lacrosse is something I wanted to pursue at the college level. Everyday I work to achieve my goal of playing at the highest level I possibly can. As a freshman I made varsity for my highly successful 3x district winning team, but unfortunately due to COVID-19 I didn’t have a freshman season. I started every lacrosse game for my high school team as a sophomore, and I was second on the team for goals, assists, and total points. I was named a a “player to watch” and a “Key Newcomer” for my high school team, was Player of the Week Honorable Mention (3x), All Area Honorable Mention, and All Area Third Team. I had the opportunity to play for Team Victory 2023 at the UA150 2021 and I also got invited to play for the True National Team 2021. This summer I was 1st for goals, assists, ground balls, and caused turnovers on my club team and was able to attend STX Rising Showcase, Under Armour 150, and the University of Pittsburgh Showcase. I am a confident righty attacker always looking to drive to goal and feed the ball. I feel most comfortable playing on the elbows or behind goal, but I will play anywhere needed. I always look to use both hands and I’m not afraid to use my off hand to create a play. I also play varsity field hockey and I’ve started since my freshman year. This field hockey season, I was 1st on the team for goals and assists and I love implementing things I’ve learned in lacrosse to the game of field hockey. Outside of athletics, I have a 3.56 GPA taking honors geometry. I am a D11 sports reporter and I am involved in minithon where we raise money for children with cancer. I also help volunteer coach a local middle school lacrosse team and have an internship at a strength and conditioning gym. I plan on being a strength and conditioning coach and I am looking to major in fields like exercise science, kinesiology, health studies, or anything related.

Emily Considine
Strong work ethic, always asking questions and looking to implement coaching cues immediately. She is a strong, shifty dodger who places her shot and shoots with intent with both hands. Great field vision and IQ. She is athletic and quick which is clearly displayed in her ride and transition.
