Parker Mija '26 Recruiting Profile

I started playing lacrosse in the 1st grade as an attack until my 7th grade year when my club team needed a defensive pole. Since that day, defense has become my love. I was named captain of my club team, made the Adidas All-State team for the Northeast, invited to play on the Powell National USA team and made it to the second round for the USA National Combine for 16u/18u. My strengths that I feel that I could bring to any program is my work ethic on and off the field and most importantly my leadership abilities. Good communication with teammates and coaching staff is important for not only my success, but the team as a whole and I strive to make sure that is a key part of my game.  

Academically I finished my sophomore year with a 3.8 GPA. I am part of the R.O.A.R Committee at my school and have volunteered at many local events throughout the year to give back to the community I live in.  During my sophomore year I also joined the Morgan's Message Glens Falls High School Committee and believe strongly on supporting this message.

I continue to focus on being a good student, person, athlete, leader and most important a good son to my parents who do so much for me.  My goal is to academically have the ability to get a college scholarship and working hard to possibly have additional scholarship opportunities through lacrosse.
