Luke Shusted '22 Recruiting Profile

     As a young child, I always looked up to my older brother and I especially loved watching him play lacrosse.  I would go to all of his lacrosse games, and watch him practice for hours in our yard.  Finally, when I turned eight, my mom and dad agreed that I could play.  That was the most exciting time in my life--I definitely had lacrosse fever!  I quickly learned that not only did I enjoy the sport that I had watched all those years, but I was actually a pretty decent player.   Since then, I have realized that I thoroughly  enjoy the comradery of my teammates and working together with them, to achieve a goal. 

    All in all, I never realized just how competetive I was until I played this awesome sport.  Everyone loves to win, and I am great with that.  However, above all, I am mainly competitive with myself.  I am often making personal goals each time I step onto the field.  I am a very assertive athlete, but others would certainly not refer to me as a "ball hog."  I  love this sport and I  am dedicated to working hard to be better for my team, my school and myself.
