Zakir Khawaja
Recruit Profile
Constantly Hustling after Ground Balls.Passionate. Coachable. Strong Lacrosse IQ. Determined to win.
Hi my name is Zakir Khawaja and I am currently a senior at Southern Lehigh High School. I have been playing lacrosse since 6th grade and truly love the sport and am always looking for ways to improve and get better to outwork my rivals. I am very hardworking and dedicated to helping my teammates and myself succeed in the sport of lacrosse. In addition, over time I have played a variety of positions in lacrosse such as Attack and Defense but now I mainly play Offensive Midfielder and also Defensive Midfielder. I believe I am very valuable due to the fact that I can play both ends of the ball by helping my team with the offense and defense aspect of the ball. Also, I believe I can make a significant contribution to your team because of my ability to clear the ball from the defense side and get it towards the offensive side of the field. Overall I would really like to be a given a chance to show you who I am as a person playing lacrosse and If you have a question please do not hesitate to contact me as I am very active on this recruiting page. Thanks!

Zakir is a hard working kid with a great attitude. He brings athleticism and speed to the game that is simply un-coachable, and has continued to develop as a solid short stick defensive midfielder.
