Faith Tillotson '23 Recruiting Profile

My name is Faith Tillotson,  I am a goal-driven person who loves to work hard and see results from my efforts.  I've been an athlete since I was three years old starting with Soccer.   Most of my younger years were spent in Gymnastics where I was a competitive gymnast and worked hard training in the gym for countless hours reaching level 7 in 6th grade.  It is through Gymnastics that I realized that I liked to work out, see results, and train my body hard to compete.  I started field hockey in 4th grade because I went to a girls varsity game at Thornton Academy which is the high school that I am now in.  By the time I got to play Field Hockey in middle school, I chose to focus on that sport and retired from Gymnastics when I was in 6th grade.  Field Hockey is my passion, I immediately chose to join a club so I could work on my skills as well as have the opportunity to play year-round.  Throughout the year I'm either on the school  Field Hockey team or club team and also play spring Lacrosse to keep myself conditioned.  I like to stay busy.  The club I joined is Coastal Field Hockey and I have played with the best girls from the state of Maine who have also been as driven as I am which has helped me push myself and become the best I can be and continue to grow. 

I approach my education in the same way as sports.  I've never shied away from taking the harder classes and pushing myself.  It's important for me to study as hard as I play sports and achieving high grades is just as important as having a successful sports season.  I have also strived to be that high honor roll, straight-A student, and have always pushed through the obsticals that have come my way with the academics. 

I look forward to extend my hard-work ethics beyond high school.
