Kathryn Krupa '26 Recruiting Profile

Hello, my name is Katie. I, at age 4, was so bored with figure skating, I craved action. So, I asked my dad if I could play hockey. He, of course, agreed. I can't remember what drew me to specifically hockey, but since I've started, it's impossible to see myself away from it. It's my passion! The speed of the game, the quick decision-making, the competition, the friendships I've made, the highs, the lows have all made me who I am today. Hockey has changed and shaped me so much as an athlete and person. I've learned the value of knowing you have to put in hard work and make sacrifices to succeed. This helps me succeed as a student. I know my education will have a vital impact upon what I do for a career, and hockey has given me the discipline to work hard. I am very good at math, and enjoy the STEM part of my schooling, in particular engineering. I utilize opportunities given to me such as taking summer courses to get ahead to expand my regular year with extra electives. I am in the Math Honors Society(Mu Alpha Theta), French National Honors Society, and have gotten awards from high school for being a straight A student. I just recently scored a 34 on the ACT.  I plan on continuing my academic success and playing hockey in college. I hope you consider me for your college team!
