Why did you choose the school? “F and M is a place where I can get a great education and also have a competitive lacrosse experience. I attended F and M camps and clinics and I felt comfortable on campus, really liked the coaches, and the players were friendly.”
Team’s outlook for 2016 HS season: “We should be competitive this year as we are returning many players. We have a hard schedule with the Inter-Ac so each game will be challenging.”
Thank You: “I want to thank my parents for their encouragement and taking me all over to tournaments and making them fun. My teammates both on my SCH and Ultimate lacrosse teams for making me a better player. The coaches along the way; Michelle DiJuliis, Chelsea Rosiak, Lindsey Colferai, Coach Duck, Alex Kahoe and Allison Thomas, and particularly my mom, who has coached me since I could hold a lacrosse stick and instilled in me a passion for lacrosse.”
