Rylie Novak '24 Recruiting Profile

** Please note I have committed to the University of Iowa for 2024 **

I am a strong, very competitive 5' 10" midfielder/forward in the 2024 recruiting class.  I've been selected to the U18 Canadian National Team after also making the U16 National Team earlier this year.  I am 1 of only 4 players in all of Canada from the 2024 class to make the U18 National Team.

I am a very versatile athlete that my coaches and teammates depend on to lead and deliver in big games.  I am known on the field as an impact player, usually I play Center Midfield.  I can play any position well, and currently my coaches have me playing up the middle.  I am a top-level student-athlete that thrives in a competitive sports culture, I know that playing Div 1 is where I want to be, it's my passion.

I have a lot of international, championship and high performance program experience, my recent highlights include:

     1.  Selected to the U18 Canadian National Team in 2023 - upcoming test series vs Team France
     2.  Selected to the U16 Canadian National Team in 2022 - starting center mid, played test series vs Team USA
     3.  Won the U16 Canadian National Championship in 2022
     4.  Awarded the Female Athlete of the Year for my AAA High School in 2022 (sophomore)

Currently I am training with the U18 Canadian National Team at the Vancouver hub and also playing on my academy, club and high school teams.

My focus is to continue working hard towards my goal of committing to a fantastic field hockey program for 2024.
