Kimberly Sands '14 Recruiting Profile

Our team is playing in the first round of the Class S State Tournament on Tuesday, Nov. 5th @ 2 at St Thomas Aquinas Seminary in Bloomfield, CT.

My goal as an athlete is to play field hockey at a college that is also strong academically, especially in my intended major. I have just recently, during my freshman year of high school, started to play field hockey. The sport and the required skills will stay with me forever. Years in team sports have taught me sportsmanship, teamwork and respect of coaches, officials and other players. Outside of sports, I excel in mathematics. In college, I intend to study business and accounting. My goal is to be respected in the business aspect of our world and make a difference.

I was proud to be named head captain of my varsity team this year.
