Kelly Rosenfeld '20 Recruiting Profile

In 5th grade after many years of baseball and softball I tried lacrosse and immediately said that I would give up softball for lacrosse.  I have not stopped playing since,  PAL league, town league, summer travel league and school ball.  Every team has been different but I have learned so much along the way.

This year as a sophomore I was chosen to be on Massapequa High School's varsity team.  This was a great honor, I played under coaches with many conference and county titles and with girls going to numerous division I, II and III schools next year.   Although a bit scared at first I tried my best and received a good amount of playing time, including being on the field when my team won the Nassau County Championship.  We put up a great fight in the Long Island Championship but eventually lost in double overtime.   The hard work of this season has made me really want to continue playing in college.

I realize that college is not just about sports.  The hard work I show on the field is the way I attack my school work.  I have learned as a 3 sport athlete that time management is an important habit that must be mastered in order to accomplish your goals.  I am proud to say that I have been on the honor roll every quarter since 7th grade and have achieved a 3.7 GPA while taking accelerated math, science and Spanish for 4 years.  Right now, I am looking forward to majoring in either criminal justice or pre-law.

This will be my 5th summer playing for the Long Island Wave.  This too has been a great learning experience and the opportunity to play in many tournaments on the east coast.  

I hope to pursue my dream of continuing to be a student athlete in college.
