Lucas Maroney '24 Recruiting Profile

Hello,

I am a Canadian Rower from Welland, Ontario Canada. Rowing has been a passion of mine since grade 6 (11 years old). It was introduced to me from past generations starting with my grandfather and then my dad. I have been involved with different local clubs and constantly seeking opportunities to perform and further develop my skills. For the past two years I have been rowing with Ontario NexGen Performance Center. My training involves long weeks consisting of 2 workouts per day.

Rowing at  a high performance level has shaped me in many different levels not only from the athletic perspective. The training has taught me discipline, the importance of accountability and has given me the capacity to test my personal limits to become the best version of me.  I have learned both to persevere through challenging times and the significant impact of working together towards the  same goal as a team. 

My motivation and love for the sport has kept me focused and helped me strive for more in my academic career as well. In the future, I am very interested in being a part of a competitive collegiate team  with equal goals that will allow me to grow further personally as a student athlete.
