Paige Merryman '22 Recruiting Profile

Field Hockey has always been close to my heart. Ever since I started playing in 7th grade I knew I always wanted to go to the next level and play in college.  I always make an effort to become a better player on and off the field. I enjoy learning and trying new things. In my free time I try to practice as much as possible with a stick and ball in hand. I have learned a lot about myself within the past few years of playing filed hockey. There has also been a lot of challenges that I have had to over come. One of those big challenges is my breathing. I have Asthma and VCD so I have really struggled with breathing. Every year a goal of mine is to improve my fitness and breathing. I have made a lot of improvements.
