Connor Barrett '21 Recruiting Profile

My name is Connor, I am 18 years old and in my grade 12 grad year. I moved away from my family at the start of grade 10 to attend Royal Bay Secondary in Victoria, BC, for its lacrosse academy and know the commitment it takes to be a student athlete both on and off the field. Training and competing in many different sports (basketball, hockey, snowboarding and gymnastics) has given me well-rounded athleticism and taught me about doing the work to keep improving and always being a leader. 

I am a quick midfielder with solid lacrosse fundamentals.  I have played box lacrosse for  11 years and am a 3-time national silver medalist representing Team BC. I have also played field lacrosse for 6 years and am going into my third year at the academy. What sets me apart from other recruits is my fitness, stamina and speed which help me play both sides of the ball in the midfield. I have played LSM, attack and can also take face-offs. I rise to the occasion in games, compete hard and give my best effort every shift. My parents, teammates and great coaches along the way have all encouraged and helped me to be a better athlete and team player. I have been an honour roll student since middle school and I plan to study business and play NCAA lacrosse. I will continue to work hard in the gym and in the classroom to improve my GPA.
