I began playing lacrosse in 7th grade. Having this late start and being on the west coast I was at a disadvantage. I pride myself on being the most rapidly improving player. By freshman year I was a starting varsity midfielder and #6 goal scorer (while also running track and participating in morning weights for football). My sophomore year I was a captain. My size (6'5'' 205 lbs.) and speed are a dangerous combination. My improvement is a testament to my coach ability, and hard work. I am an incredible student with a 4.27 GPA and participate in many extracurricular activities. Lastly, my coaches can speak on my behalf that I am the most competitive person they know, I absolutely hate losing. In the endorsement section of my profile, my former club coach states that "[Zach] works harder than anyone I have seen".
