Emily Denaga '21 Recruiting Profile

Outside of my academic and athletic accomplishments that are highlighted in other places on this profile, I would like to take a minute to briefly outline a few other areas of interest in my life that have been cultivated over the last 8 to 10 years.  While the sport of Lacrosse is my first love and where I want to continue to focus my time and attention as I proceed to the college level, I have a few other interests and hobbies where I enjoy spending my time.  I welcome the opportunity to further discuss the below items and events with any interested college recruiters personally. These additional interests and activities are as follows;

   ⁃    I am a Repeat volunteer with the Gwinnett Lacrosse League Sticklets program to help introduce young girls to the sport of LAX. 

   ⁃    I am a 10 year member and currently striving to be named as part of the “Hall of Fame” with the Collins Hill Stingray Swim Team where I have contributed to (5) consecutive years of 1st place victories in the North Georgia swim league.  

   ⁃    During the summer swim season I enjoy volunteering weekly with my Collins Hill Stingrays swim coaches during the 6 and under practice sessions. 

   ⁃    I was an active member of the M12 Student Ministry at 12 Stone Church and currently attend the “H12” High School events as time permits between practices and school work. 

   ⁃    I was blessed with the opportunity to travel abroad to Germany, France and Spain with the Twin Rivers Middle School Foreign Language Program during the summer between my 8th and 9th grade years. 

   ⁃    I am a newly Certified Life Guard and  currently employed at the Bogan Aquatic Center indoor swim facility. 

   ⁃    I’ve enjoyed the experience of working alongside my older brother Jared and his friends as a “Buddy” in the Gwinnett County Special Olympics bowling and bocce ball events.  

   ⁃    I was honored with the experience of Team Captain during my 8th grade Rec. LAX season. 

I hope that you will agree that my spread of interests, along with my ongoing academic and athletic accomplishments, will prove to be a good fit for your college and Lacrosse program. And if it is...then let’s talk!
