Recruit Profile
Ultimate Team Player with High Lax IQ, Coachable, Determined, Hard Working, Multidimensional Lacrosse Athlete

In July, I was named US Lacrosse 2021 Academic All American. As a Junior, I was one of the starting Attack for the 2021 Milton (GA) HS team (Current #15/Pre-Season #20 National Ranking, Nike/USA Lax Poll). We recently completed a 21-0 undefeated season to capture our 4th straight GAHS 6A-7A State Championship (2021,2019-2017) title and 14th of 16 played in GAHS Girl's Lacrosse history. One of the top scorers on the team with 28 goals, 11 assists, 22 GB and 6 CTO. I have also maintained a +4.0 GPA while taking honors classes throughout the year.

As a Sophomore, I was the starting Attack/Midfield for the #16 Nationally Ranked (IL HS Pre-Season Poll) Milton (GA) HS team. I was chosen for the 2020 US Lacrosse National Tournament, Team Georgia #1 and selected to participate in the Under Armour 150 as a class of 2022 selection, along with playing in the 2020 Under Armour All American Underclass Tournament in the Junior Spotlight Games.

The summer before my sophomore year I had the opportunity to play in the US Lacrosse National Tournament for Team Georgia #1 as an Attack/Midfielder. I played for Team South-COMMAND in the 2019 Under Armour All American Underclass Tournament (first South team in history to make playoff round) as well as participated in the 2019 Under Armour 150 as a class of 2022 selection.

As a freshman, I was a JV/Flex player for Milton (GA) High School. While on the JV team, we had an undefeated season where I lead the team in goals, steals, ground balls and was second in assists. At the close of the JV season, I was brought up to Varsity full time. I played with my team in the playoff's as well as the championship game where we won the 2019 Georgia Varsity 6A-7A State Championship.

I started playing lacrosse in 3rd grade, and was also a state ranked GA swimmer up until 6th grade. In middle school, I was a four year starter on the middle school team, and won 3 championships in 4 years.

Her height and stick-skills make her the most dependable scoring threat inside the 8m. Off the feed, it's a guaranteed goal! She is adding dimension to her game with using her size off the dodge and feeding out of the drive. One of the hardest working kids on the team!
