Tessa Hewitson
Recruit Profile
Multi-sport athlete with versatility to play any field position when called upon by my team. I work hard everyday to be the best player and teammate possible.
I began playing lacrosse in second grade for an all boys team because that was the only team in my area and I had an extreme desire to play. I was always a standout with the boys because of my speed and aggresiveness. In seventh grade, I made the switch to a girls team so that I could continue my lacrosse career throughout high school and college. I am a very strong defensive player but I also excel at moving the ball up the field. My versatility is what my coaches say is my strongest attribute. I have always been told that I am extremely coachable and a selfless teammate. I believe that balancing school and athletics is crucial which is why I pride myself of maintaining a 4.0. I am the president of my sophomore class and also part of my school's leadership program. I am currently in AP U.S. History and will be taking four additional AP classes my junior year. I play a vital role in the charitable programs that are put on at my school like our annual gift drive and UMATTER week.
