Personal Statement

Although I have played a variety of sports in my life, field hockey has always been my love from the moment I picked up a stick. There is a special uniqueness to it that separates it from all other sports. It has given me so much more then just exercise and life long friendships. It has taught me discipline, commitment, passion, teamwork, leadership skills, how to recover quickly from mistakes, how to set goals and achieve them, how to push myself to be the best I can be, and most of all has shown me how to succeed not only on the field but in life as well. I love field hockey. It has become a part of me. I would love nothing more then to continue playing through my college years and beyond. I hope to be involved with the sport for as long as I possibly can and hope to one day pass along the love of the game to others as my coaches have so generously given to me.

Over the past 9 years other then playing on various teams with the Strong Island organization I have also attended various training/skills clinics run by Coach Tina Moon (head coach of strong island and former D1 All- American for UCONN), Coach Carissa Eye (coach for strong island and former D1 All American for Sacred Heart), and most recently clinics with Katie Trombetta (current D1 All American at Michigan).

During 2017 U16 I played with a cast on my hand at regionals due to a fracture in my hand from being hit with a stick at the Columbia University 19U tournament a few weeks prior.
