Chris Hintz '21 Recruiting Profile

I started playing hockey when I was 4 years old.   From a very early age, I knew that I wanted to play hockey collegiately and beyond, hopefully.  I started playing goalie when I was 8.  Hockey is my passion and I know that I want to pursue my passion in college.

I have a very strong work ethic - I work out, eat right, and seize every opportunity to be on the ice and improve my skills.  I strive to be mentally tough.  I do my best to stop every puck that comes my way, but if I don't, I am good at refocusing and working even harder to stop the next puck.  I want to play tough for my team - the only way we get better is to work and play together as a strong team - no "I", only "we".

In the classroom, I study hard and maintain a high GPA. I also work at goalie clinics for my private lesson coaches as I am a good instructor, role model and I like working with younger kids.

I want to attend a college where I can push myself in the classroom and on the ice. I am open to all options and want to ultimately find the right college match at the highest level of competition possible. I hope to become a great role model to all my peers and make my parents proud.
