jillian tabaka '22 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing hockey since I was 4 years old and it’s been a huge part of my life.   I would love to have the opportunity to continue playing as long as I can.  I’m one who cares a lot about the game and am always wanting to improve in any way. I work hard every time I step onto the ice and make the most out of every game and practice. One of my assets  is that I can see the ice well and I am one who can anticipate where the puck is going  or where to position my body when I’m not with the puck. I also use my speed to my advantage. 

I’m a good student athlete as well. I am enrolled in AP and advanced classes. I am responsible and manage to keep up with assignments and maintain a high grade point average  in addition to being a three sport athlete.

Being part of a team is important to me and I look forward to working with my teammates who all have this same mentally.  I want to play college hockey because hockey is what I love to do and is a big  part of who I am.
