Boy's Committed Players
360° of Commitment: 3d Lacrosse Helps You Advance Your Lacrosse Journey
Beginning with 14 committed players in 2009 (3d Lacrosse’s first year of operation), we have been dedicated to matching motivated players with appropriate college experiences from both an academic and athletic perspective. Player advocacy continues to be a primary company goal and most players will find a lacrosse home during their search, resulting in a placement that combines their athletic abilities with their academic interests and achievements.
3d Lacrosse understands the changing recruiting landscape, continues to build productive relationships with college coaches nationwide and will help you and your family with a 360-degree view of how to move from high school and club play onto college rosters. As of 2015, more than a dozen 3d Lacrosse executives and coaches have participated as college recruiters, scouts or evaluators, providing 3d Lacrosse with advanced knowledge about how to develop recruitment-friendly candidates. We work with each player and family individually to set goals, evaluate options and present choices as they arise.
Each year, 3d Lacrosse announces its committed players as the year progresses and with great anticipation and pride as we know that each one embarked on a journey unique to the individual, understanding that there are many paths towards a higher education. Below you will find information about the bulk of our early commits: names, pending college enrollment, position, 3d Lacrosse region and more. Please know that we are here to support your efforts toward getting onto this list.
3d Lacrosse also offers players an unprecedented number of college exposure opportunities, including those created by 3d Lacrosse such as 3d Blue Chip Camps, Division III Showcases and tournaments like The Denver Shootout and Riptide at Oceanside. Select teams also travel to other well-regarded events and tournaments nationally throughout the year. As your family’s commitment to the game of lacrosse grows, please let us know how we can help your son or daughter advance their own lacrosse journey.

15. Who has been your biggest influence? My dad, all my coaches and friends
Why did you choose to commit to this college? I have several 3D teammates that have committed to UVM who I have established good friendships with. I have also really enjoyed my visits to the school on various prospect days. I like the coaching staff, the way they recruited me and their approach to the game. Lastly, my dad is an alumnus of UVM and actually played on the first Varsity Lacrosse team for UVM in 1978. I feel a real family connection to this school and am excited about playing there and attending this great school on Lake Champlain.
After going through the recruiting process, what are some helpful tips you would give others who are about to go through this process? Number one, get with a good program like 3D where the coaches understand the college game, know the players in the recruiting process and develop players to their full potential. Next thing is to work hard on your game, all aspects of it all the time. You can never practice enough and never be strong enough. Third figure out the schools that will be a good fit for you, academically, locationally and socially, so that if for some reason you end up not playing lacrosse there that you are glad to be there regardless. Most importantly, play hard and be a good teammate to your team members and hustle like heck between the restraining lines, college coaches watch that a lot. They know they can teach you the game once you get to their program; they really want to see your heart, your willingness to recover if you make a mistake.
What do you like best about 3d Lacrosse? The coaching is terrific, all aspects of it. Joining 3D changed my lacrosse career path. Without 3D, I’m pretty sure I would not be going to UVM today. Dave Jenkins, Matt Rowley, Mark Goodrich, all the coaches that have coached teams I’ve played on are great and the facilities they have access to all make the program second to none. They know all the college coaches well, and know how to match players to programs and staff. They teach you how to play the college game.
What was your favorite part of 3d training? I’d have to say that the D-1 commit camp at the end of the summer this past year was really outstanding. The box camp in Canada was great too. Playing on the Vail Team was a blast and all the tournaments were terrific. I particularly liked King of the Hill this year, our team was really strong and we lost only one game in the Championship unfortunately, by one goal.
What is your favorite subject in school? I enjoy all my classes in school; New Treir HS is a great place to go to school. I will miss it when I go to college but know that the teachers there have prepared me well to succeed in College. If there were one subject I like the most, it would be History.
Name one thing that you could not live without. I could not live without Chipotle Tabasco. I put it on everything and it taste amazing.
If you had to choose one weapon of choice, what would it be and why? Samaria sword. The reason why is because it works for the lady in the Walking dead.
What are some of your pregame rituals and/or game day superstitions? After every tournament, my Dad and I go to the nearest Chipotle. It’s a must for us. I get three soft shell tacos and a burrito bowl and chow down big time.
What is your favorite vacation spot? Aspen Colorado. We have been going there as a family since the day I was born. My favorite sport, after Lacrosse is skiing.
What is your favorite food? Chipotle… what else is there?
Who is your favorite athlete? Lionel Messi is one of my favorites.
Who is your favorite musician? Avicii
What is the last book you read? Things we carry.
What is your favorite quote? The Man in the Arena, by Theodore Roosevelt.
“It is not the critic who counts;
not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles,
or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena,
Who’s face is marred by dust and sweat and blood;
who strives valiantly; who errs, and comes short again and again,
because there is no effort without error and shortcoming;
but who does actually strive to do the deeds;
who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions;
who spends himself in a worthy cause;
who at the best knows in the end triumph
of high achievement, and who at the worse,
if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly,
so that his place shall never be with those cold and
timid souls who know neither victory or defeat.”
President Theodore Roosevelt
at the Sorbonne in Paris on April 23, 1910
Who has been your biggest influence? My mom and dad, they’ve always been there for me and no way I would be doing all the great things I’ve had the chance to do without them. Period.

Why did you choose to commit to this college? I chose to commit to Hobart because it had the right feel. As soon as I visited and stepped on campus I felt like it was a place that I could call home for 4 years. The campus was beautiful, the coaches were awesome, and all of the players were very welcoming. It felt like the right place for me.
After going through the recruiting process, what are some helpful tips you would give others who are about to go through this process? Be patient. The recruiting process is very flawed but if you keep working hard and playing well then you will end up at the right place for you.
What do you like best about 3d Lacrosse? I like all of the friendships that I have made and strengthened at 3d. There is nothing like training, traveling, and playing with a great group of guys and great coaches.
What was your favorite part of 3d training? The coaches at 3d are very hands on and they want you to improve. The drills and methodology are designed to push players to improve and be the best they can be.

What are some of your pregame rituals and/or game day superstitions? I prepare the same way for every high school game. I wear the same pair of socks for every game and I do all of my stretches in the same order in the locker room. For every home game right after school I go down to Subway eat with some of the guys and then go to King Soopers to get Gatorade energy gummies. After that we go up to the locker room and listen to the Pitch Perfect soundtrack while throwing the ball around.

Why did you choose to commit to this college? I chose the University of Hartford because of their strong academics and for the opportunity to play Division 1 lacrosse under a great coaching staff.

Why did you choose to commit to this college? I chose to commit to Hobart because the campus was exactly what I was looking for with the small town and close knit community feel. Coach Raymond and the rest of the coaching staff are awesome guys with a big vision for the program and I cannot wait to be a part of that.
After going through the recruiting process, what are some helpful tips you would give others who are about to go through this process? To take it slow. I know a lot of college coaches want to recruit the next big stud out of elementary school and that kid will commit there right away, but in all honesty, taking time to weigh all the options, visit a lot of schools, and find what is best for you is what is most important. Also, ask as many questions as possible to make sure that it really is what you want.
What do you like best about 3d Lacrosse? Playing with kids you normally would have a rivalry against, but actually could also play against in college. It just so happens that I will get to play with another couple of 3d players at Hobart so that’s really exciting. The training and coaches are top notch as well, demanding a lot from players, and the ever evolving 3d methodology is amazing.
What was your favorite part of 3d training? Just so much time out on the field and in the box made my skills a hundred times better and that made it my favorite part.
What is your favorite subject in school? I am an English kinda guy. I love reading and writing and both come much more naturally than any other subject.
Name one thing that you could not live without. Sports. Whether it’s lacrosse or hockey, I couldn’t go a day without them.
If you had to choose one weapon of choice, what would it be and why? RP3x head and STX Katana box shaft. I enjoy the weight of the katana matched with the ability to face off with the RP3x.
What are some of your pregame rituals and/or game day superstitions? I don’t have any. I just like to visualize different game situations at random times during the day, but otherwise I just get ready to go out and play.

Why did you choose to commit to this college? I chose Johns Hopkins due to its amazing campus, high level of academic standards and the rich tradition of lacrosse that is given to you.

After going through the recruiting process, what are some helpful tips you would give others who are about to go through this process?

If you had to choose one weapon of choice, what would it be and why? I really enjoy my current setup. The Nike Elite 10 head with white ECD mesh and String King Shooters and side wall. A nylon string with two shooters. It has great hold and comes really smooth with some whip behind it. I'm using the STX Stallion shaft. I like it cause it light and fairly strong.
What are some of your pregame rituals and/or game day superstitions? When playing Jr. A lacrosse in Peterborough, I always have the same trainer tape my pads for me. He does the same way starting with my left ones first then my right ones. I also try to not let others touch my lacrosse stick on game day.
What is your favorite vacation spot? I don't get to go on vacation too much. A lot of the time my vacation is incorporated with lacrosse. I'd have to say Denver was pretty cool to go out and see.
What is your favorite food? Without a doubt it would be steak with onions on top.
Who is your favorite athlete? Lacrosse wise, I'd have to say Kyle Harrison and Zack Greer. Both demonstrate great lacrosse skills and a clean social life. Outside of lacrosse, I like guys like Ray Lewis. He worked hard for what he wanted no matter what others told him.

1. Why did you choose to commit to this college? I chose to Commit to Colorado College because of the great academics with the block plan along with the amazing Lacrosse program with great facilities and coaching.

2. After going through the recruiting process, what are some helpful tips you would give others who are about to go through this process? Don't give up.

He really helped me a lot with the process and how to do it and he set me up for success.
3. What do you like best about 3d Lacrosse? I like how the coaches really care about the players and your not just another face. A coach will remember you if you just meet them at a camp or if they are your summer team coach. They will always be there for you and they always want the best for you.

It started because I didn't want to forget anything but it's just evolved into a tradition. I also have to touch the corner of the restraining box with my feet before a game. I've just been doing that ever since 6th grade and I keep doing it.

1. Why did you choose to commit to this college? It has always been my dream to play lacrosse for a premier academic school that has a strong lacrosse tradition and Colgate definitely achieves both. For about the past two years I have been reaching out to Colgate so when they finally made an offer it was a no brainer for me.
2. After going through the recruiting process, what are some helpful tips you would give others who are about to go through this process?

But if I could say one thing, it would be to try narrow your list down to about 5 schools and then really go after those ones. Sending blast emails to 20+ schools just doesn’t work. As much as you want to be wanted, coaches want to be wanted as well. Get onto the campus of your dream school, call the coach once a week and make sure he knows you are willing to do anything to play for that school.

After going through the recruiting process, what are some helpful tips you would give others who are about to go through this process?
Through my recruiting process, it helps to listen to what all my coaches had to say and to be coachable, they know a lot more than any high school kid. Also, it can be very stressful while playing in all of the games and tournaments, just hoping not to mess up in front of any coach that may be recruiting, so it helped me to just block out all of that and just play that ball. Coaches understand we are people and people mess up but they want to see the kids who go out after every ball and hustle even more when they make a mistake. Give it your all.

What are some of your pregame rituals and/or game day superstitions? While I stretch before the game, I close my eyes and think to myself some of the things that I have accomplished in life and the good times that came with them. This way I can clear my mind of all the negative thoughts and get ready to play my best.

Why did you choose to commit to this college? I chose to commit to Boston University for many reasons. First off, I got a great vibe from Coach Polley, as well as the rest of the coaching staff.

I'm interested in pursuing business and they have a top tier business program and are all around regarded as a top academic school so that definitely factored in as well. I was able to meet some of the players and everything just seemed like a good fit for me.

Recruiting is a very weird process in that one week you could have nothing going for you then all of the sudden after one tournament you have four or five schools interested in you. At the same time you don't want to be too anxious when schools do start expressing interest because you have to do your homework and make sure that's what you want in a school. College is a big decision and there are a lot of factors that go into making that decision so makesure you check everything out first before making a decision. A big thing with early recruiting now is hightlight videos. You definitely want to make sure you get some film together and make a highlight tape to get out to schools. A good highlight tape can put you on the map for a lot of schools. Lastly, always work your hardest. I know its cliche but people are always watching and the little things matter they can either put you on a coach's radar or get your name crossed off his list.
What do you like best about 3d Lacrosse? I came out of a pretty small club program and the first travel team I played for definitely helped me develop because I got exposure to the American game, I was playing with and against better talent and in a sense I was forced to elevate my game. After a few years of playing for another program, I was invited to play for 3d and what I loved the most about it was the instruction, how knowledgeable the instructors were at every position. I play pole and when I was younger I never really had a lot of instruction on different techniques or strategies other than basic slide packages and checks. The first training session I had with 3d was a two day minicamp before the upcoming season of summerball. I said it then and I'll say it now, I learned more in that weekend than I had in years and had a lot of fun doing it. All the instructors are on the same page, they teach the same things they make you compete and push you to be better and it was just an amazing experience.
What was your favorite part of 3d training? Definitely the instruction. Coming from a background of not having a ton of great instruction from club teams, 3d really rose above everything else I'd experienced.
What is your favorite subject in school? I'd probably have to say either math or law. It's too close to tell.
Name one thing that you could not live without. Lacrosse. I've been playing since I was three years old, lacrosse is my life.
If you had to choose one weapon of choice, what would it be and why? Definitely some type of gun. You never want to be the guy that brings a knife to a gun fight.
What are some of your pregame rituals and/or game day superstitions? Not a big superstition guy but I'll usually wet me hair to keep it pushed back and out of my face. Right before the first faceoff the other poles, the goalie, and I have a huddle in front of the net and do a silent D cheer but that's about it.
What is your favorite vacation spot? Hawaii, beautiful and I love the warm weather.
What is your favorite food? PIzza, gotta keep it simple.
Who is your favorite athlete? I think I'd have to go with Brodie Merril.
Who is your favorite musician? I listen to a pretty wide variety, hard to pick one but probably Eric Church.
What is the last book you read? No Great Mischief, it's for an English assignment.
What is your favorite quote? "When you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe, then you will be successful."
Who has been your biggest influence? Other than my parents I would have to say Reid Acton. I have been ifluenced by a lot of people to get to where I am today but Reid is really where it all started. He is also a pole and he attended Loyola University and was part of a Canadian National World Championship team. When I decided I wanted to play pole, he helped me out a lot with techniques and checks and I did a lot of training with him and his dad (Bob) when I first started. I would say Reid wasn't the only person to influence me but he started it and I owe a lot of where I am today to him and Bob and I am very grateful and appreciative for what they did for me.
Why did you choose to commit to this college? I chose to commit to Boston University for many reasons. First off, I got a great vibe from Coach Polley, as well as the rest of the coaching staff. They were easy to talk to, upbeat, friendly guys and I just really liked them. I also really liked the campus. I visited a few other schools and BU was definitely my favorite campus and Boston's just an amazing city. I'm interested in pursuing business and they have a top tier business program and are all around regarded as a top academic school so that definitely factored in as well. I was able to meet some of the players and everything just seemed like a good fit for me.

1. Why did you choose to commit to this college? Air Force is a perfect fit for me. The Academy is close to home so I can stay close to my family, while getting the opportunity of carrying out my dream of playing Division 1 lacrosse. The minute I saw the team practicing on my visit I fell in love and could completely see myself as a Fighting Falcon. In addition, I could not pass up a world- class education while getting the opportunity to serve our country.
2. After going through the recruiting process, what are some helpful tips you would give others who are about to go through this process? Stay patient, and realize that this process is a grind. I wasn’t one of the first of my friends to commit, in fact I was one of the last and it got discouraging at times, but if you keep working hard and trust in the fact that God has a grand plan for you it’ll become easier. It’s a long tough road but stay true to who you are and just keep your head up and pound the grind out, and realize you can only control what you can control.
3. What do you like best about 3d Lacrosse? I love the competitive environment. From player to player every guy on the team is an excellent player and athlete. Having the opportunity to compete against them and then compete with them against some of the best players and teams in the country is bar none one of the most fun things I got from 3d.
4. What was your favorite part of 3d training? I just liked being able to train with some of the best lacrosse players in the state and the nation.
5. What is your favorite subject in school? Definitely English. I’m a writing nerd.
6. Name one thing that you could not live without. My faith in Christ. I couldn’t get through half the things I’ve gotten through in life without my faith.
7. If you had to choose one super power to have, what would it be and why? Teleportation. I could be anywhere I want at any time whenever I want without having to drive or get on a plane.
8. What are some of your pregame rituals and/or game day superstitions? I have too many to list, I get made fun of constantly for how elaborate my rituals are in the locker room (but that’s part of being a goalie I guess), a few are: Always eat a red apple during the chalk talk, always drink a white power-aid before/during the game, eat 22 almonds, always listen to the same music, always sit closest to the door of the locker room, always tape my stick before the game and set it next to the door, always be the last one out of the locker room, say the same prayer before every game. I could go on.
9. What is your favorite vacation spot? My bed, nothing better then just sitting back and relaxing as I drift away to another world.
10. What is your favorite food? Chipotle. Couldn’t live without my double wrapped double chicken burrito.
11. Who is your favorite athlete? I have a few but Dominique Moore is a big one.
12. Who is your favorite musician? I don’t know about musician but Rise Against is definitely on the top in terms of bands.
13. What is the last book you read? The Sound and the Fury by William Falkner
14. What is your favorite quote? “I am a fighter. I fight where I am told. I win where I fight.”
15. Who has been your biggest influence? God. Nobody has pushed me to be who I want to be and live the way I do more than God. He’s been my push and my inspiration every day and he will continue to be each and every day.

Why did you choose to commit to this college? I chose to commit to Georgetown because of its strengths in athletics, academics, and in spiritual life. I have always been a fan of Georgetown’s basketball team and when I heard they were interested in me for lacrosse, I was extremely excited.
After going through the recruiting process, what are some helpful tips you would give others who are about to go through this process? I think the most important thing in the recruiting process is listening to yourself and those you trust in making your decisions because they know what’s best for you and ultimately what you want to do in college and for the rest of your life.
What do you like best about 3d Lacrosse? I liked how 3D Lacrosse had such a widespread community with teams from So-Cal, Colorado, Nor-Cal, and the East Coast. It was an awesome experience because I got to meet guys from Colorado and the East Coast that I am still in touch with today.
What was your favorite part of 3d training? My favorite part of 3D training was implementing box lacrosse skills. Before that, I never played box or indoor lacrosse and after it helped my stick skills improve so much.
What is your favorite subject in school? My favorite subject in high school is history because I love learning about what happened in our world to shape it to what it is today.
Name one thing that you could not live without. I would definitely not be able to live without my iPhone.
If you had to choose one weapon of choice, what would it be and why? I would choose a sniper rifle because you don’t have to get dirty and still create havoc from hundreds of yards away.
What are some of your pregame rituals and/or game day superstitions? I usually listen to music before the game and also try to dance to just get loose. I do this because lacrosse is a game you’re supposed to have fun in so why play with stress or with nervousness.

I chose Hamilton because I fell in love with everything about the school. They offer an outstanding education with a very competitive lacrosse team. The campus is beautiful and it just felt like the perfect fit.
2. After going through the recruiting process, what are some helpful tips you would give others who are about to go through this process?
The most important part of the entire recruiting process is to relax. The competitive nature of the process stressed me out and sometimes made it hard to enjoy the game. You will find the right fit. Learn to enjoy the lacrosse you have left because you only have a few more years. Once you’re in college you never really know how much you'll play, so enjoy the time that you have. Reach out to schools you are interested in and let your play do the rest.
3. What do you like best about 3d Lacrosse?
I like the bonds I've made with a great group of guys on my 3d Michigan team. I get to go out and compete with guys all over the Midwest. 3d is obviously great with helping players through the recruiting process, but after it is all said an done, I enjoyed playing for the team.
4. What was your favorite part of 3d training?
I really liked that 3d training challenged a skill set of mine that I didn't regularly use. Using the different skills like lever passes have helped me to develop my game to the next level.

Why did you choose to commit to this college? I chose to commit to the Air Force Academy because it was an amazing opportunity to get a great education while serving our country.
After going through the recruiting process, what are some helpful tips you would give others who are about to go through this process? Be confident while talking to coaches whether it’s on the phone or going up and introducing yourself at a tournament. The first time I ever met Coach Wilson from the Air Force Academy, was after a game in the fall of 9th grade when I went to introduce myself. Another tip is to be persistent and know what you want in a college. Don’t commit just to commit.
What do you like best about 3d Lacrosse? The best part of 3d is all the fellow 3d athletes all over the country. After meeting them at tournaments, 3d Blue Chip or showcases, you end up keeping in touch with a lot of them during the off season. It keeps the rivalry going when you meet up again in the summer. I also like the relationships that you build with coaches during the experience. The number of mentors I’ve met and had the opportunity to play for/be coached by has made me the player I am today.
What was your favorite part of 3d training? My favorite thing about 3d training is the different aspects of your game it focuses on. Box helped me to become tougher and more physical in the way I play in the field. It also helped me eliminate unnecessary habits from my game and focus on the skills that really made me a better player. Field is great because the situations the coaches put you in during the drills allow you to feel comfortable when you come upon them while playing. All the looks you see in practice are usually things you’ll encounter during games.
What is your favorite subject in school? Math.
Name one thing that you could not live without. I couldn’t live without my family especially my brother because we can always hang out and have a good time or talk about lacrosse. It’s like having a best friend that lives with you.
If you had to choose one super power to have, what would it be and why? If I could have one super power I would choose to be able to read minds because it would be advantageous to know what people are thinking about everything at all times.
What are some of your pregame rituals and/or game day superstitions? I keep a fruit snack in my right sock during every big game. I’ve never lost with a fruit snack in my right sock, so I’ll probably keep doing that until I loose. At that point I’ll just have to find another superstition.

Who has been your biggest influence? My biggest influence has to be my parents because throughout my entire life they’ve always guided me and helped me through obstacles while still allowing me to make decisions for myself. Without them I would be extremely lost and confused.

Why did you choose to commit to this college? I chose Virginia because it is what I wanted in a college both in its academics and athletics. I also loved the coaching staff. Coach Starsia is the all-time winningest coach in college lacrosse and he is even a better person. The school’s campus is exactly what I wanted big but small at the same time. I also wanted a public school and to play for a team that can win a national championship. The academics are very good ranking top 2 in public schools. I really wanted to push myself academically but still able to win on the lacrosse field.
After going through the recruiting process, what are some helpful tips you would give others who are about to go through this process? The most important thing that I would tell people who are going through the recruiting process is to always stay on top of everything. Make a list of the colleges you want to attend and reach out to them first so they know that you are interested. Tell them the events you are going to be attending and ask them to come see you play. I would also take every opportunity a school gives you to visit and visit as many schools as you can so you know you make the right choice at the end of the day.
What do you like best about 3d Lacrosse? I love the coaching staff the most and my teammates are like family to me. We stick up for each other in every situation and we keep in contact throughout the year. The coaching staff is funny when it’s a laid back situation and strict when they need to be. They teach you everything you need in order to be successful. Coach Munro leads the coaching staff with how he teaches and he is a very good coach and helped me a ton in the recruiting process.
What was your favorite part of 3d training? The box training is my favorite. It teaches you how to play in closed environments and helps you a lot when you get out on the field.
What is your favorite subject in school? My favorite subject in school is science. I love science because it teaches me new things about my body that I had no idea and teaches me new things about our environment.
Name one thing that you could not live without. My family and friends. I love always being around people and there is nothing better than being with your family or going out with your friends. Both my friends and family support me in everything I do and always want me to reach goals that are almost un-achievable.
If you had to choose one weapon of choice, what would it be and why? The weapon of choice that I would use is an evo 4 head and an alliance shaft. I like this stink because evos are easy to string and last a long time and the shaft is sturdy but still has some flex.
What are some of your pregame rituals and/or game day superstitions? I don’t have any pregame rituals I just like to calm my nerves with some EDM music and get pumped up for the game.
What is your favorite vacation spot? My favorite vacation spot is our home in Kiawah, South Carolina

Why did you choose to commit to this college? I chose to commit to Princeton first and foremost because of its academic reputation. Academics were an important facet to my college search and I knew I wanted a school that would challenge me academically. I also wanted a place that would fit my personality not only academically but socially and athletically. Coach Chris Bates also had a huge impact on my choice. Immediately when I met him we clicked and I knew he would be the right coach for me. Lastly I wanted to play for a team that would consistently compete for a National Championship.
After going through the recruiting process, what are some helpful tips you would give others who are about to go through this process? I would say make sure you pick a few tournaments where you know there will be some of your desired coaches at. Don’t play in a ton of tournaments hoping to be seen. Also be extremely active in terms of emailing and contacting your coaches. They can’t contact you so you need to reach out to them.

Why did you choose to commit to this college? I chose Notre Dame because it simply is the right fit for me. The Notre Dame lacrosse experience offers the right mix of high-level lacrosse and high-level academics. Getting the chance to compete for championships while receiving a top education is what solidified my choice. Notre Dame also is known for their active alumni, which will set me up for life after college. Lastly, the relationship I developed with the coaching staff. They made me feel comfortable with them and the school. I can see making an easy transition to being a Notre Dame student athlete.
After going through the recruiting process, what are some helpful tips you would give others who are about to go through this process? Patience. While early commitments are all they hype and has a major cool factor, take your time and find the place for you. It’s hard to sit back and see your teammates make commitments, but if you have a dream school, they may not be an early recruiting school. Do your research.
What do you like best about 3d Lacrosse? The offense doesn’t depend on one person to score. If you work the 3D system, anyone can score from anywhere. Truly a team based system, which I know the college coaches like. I also like the individual skill and IQ development.
What was your favorite part of 3d training? The ability to use our offense in the box and field interchangeably. All of the trainings are high reps and high tempo which is what you will experience in college. This will only help prepare me for the next level.
What is your favorite subject in school? Cell Biology/Genetics and Biotechnology
Name one thing that you could not live without. My family
If you had to choose one weapon of choice, what would it be and why? I would pick a sniper rifle because I can get a job done without having to be up close and personal with the opposition. For lacrosse, I use a Noz with mid-pocket and Dragonfly medium flex.
What are some of your pregame rituals and/or game day superstitions? Same pair of socks must be worn in all games when on a win streak (washed of course) I split my pregame playlist in half with rock and then rap. I take a light nap with the rock playing and then am awake when the rap plays. In tournaments have to wear the same penny color if we’ve won in it before
What is your favorite vacation spot? Either on a beach where it’s very warm, or up in the mountains where it’s very snowy like Vail.
What is your favorite food? Sushi
Who is your favorite athlete? Sergio Perkovic
Who is your favorite musician? I like different genres depending on my mood, but usually Kanye West or Childish Gambino
What is the last book you read? All Quiet on the Western Front
What is your favorite quote? “If I had 24 hours to chop down a tree, I will spend 23 hours sharpening my axe!” – Coach Tinker
"Imma show you, how great I am.
Last night, I cut the light off in my bedroom and was in bed before the room was dark.
Imma show you, how great I am.
Only last week, I murdered a rock, injured a stone, hospitalized a brick.
I'm so mean, I make medicine sick.
Imma show you, how great I am.
This kid's gonna be the best kid in the world.
This kid's gonna be somebody better than anybody I ever knew.
Imma show you, how great I am.
I have wrestled with an alligator, I done tussled with a whale, I done handcuffed lightnin', thrown thunder in jail.
Imma show you, how great I am.
All you chumps are gonna bow when I whoop him, all of you.
I know you got him, I know you've got him picked, but the man's in trouble. Imma show you how great I am.”
-Muhammad Ali
