2023 HighlightsPersonal Statement
I am a class of 2026 Left winger and Left Defenseman. I am 5 foot 6 and weigh 150 pounds. I originally began playing travel hockey last season, competing in multiple 18U A tournaments as a 15 year old forward. I recorded 6 goals and 13 points across 9 games. I currently play for Chapel Hill High School in the Triangle High School Hockey League as a Left Defenseman and for the Carolina Thunder 16u A team as a Left Winger averaging over a point a game.
I have loved this game since childhood. Since the time I could barely walk, I was knocking around a ball or a puck with my toy hockey stick. Hockey has always been enjoyable to me and has made me a better person. I have made great friends through the game, and win or lose I have learned so much about myself and life. I am a versatile player, and although I primarily play left wing I feel very comfortable in all 5 skating positions. I am willing to accept any role on the team, regardless if there are points attached to the positions or not. I always strive to be a great teammate and encourage others on my club as well. The team result always matters more to me than individual stats.
