I just completed my first year at colby on the lacrosse team. We made colby lacrosse history this year by making it to the NCAA tournament final fours for the first time ever. In high school at Pingree, I was a three sport varsity athlete playing lacrosse, ice hockey, and soccer. I was captain of both lacrosse and ice hockey my senior year. My pingree lacrosse team won our league (EIL) all 3 years (freshman year was canceled due of COVID). I was named All-NEPSAC Honorable mention, EIL All-Star, and Salem News All-Star honorable mention my senior year for lacrosse. I grew up playing lacrosse, starting at around 6 years old. I played every sport I possibly could, before I ultimately decided to play lacrosse in college going into my junior year in high school.

I think there is a lack of awareness for athlete's mental health, when it actually has a huge impact on athlete performance. Confidence is key for playing to your best ability and it's so easy for an athlete to get in their head due to playing time, mistakes, injuries, and more. In high school I had a big knee injury which had a huge impact on me both during and after the injury. I didn't really have the mentorship to help me get back on my feet mentally. I want to be that person for someone. Even just having someone that you can talk to that understands your circumstances that isn't on your team or at your school is so helpful. You can confide in them and they can help you walk through solutions. I think I've faced a lot challenges with injuries, playing time, confidence, etc both in high school and college and I've learned how to find the fun in the sport I love even when it gets hard. I want to help other people find that fun, especially when the sports world has gotten more and more stressful and intense.

I know firsthand the struggles that come with being a student-athlete chasing your own version of perfection. Through my high school career and first two years of college lacrosse, I've been fortunate to have incredibly strong support systems around me who genuinely believed in me. There have been countless moments where I found myself overthinking or doubting my abilities, and without the people in my corner pushing me to be the best version of myself, I wouldn't the person I am today. That experience taught me something equally important which is to believe in myself without seeking validation from others.
The resilience it takes to be a student-athlete is real, and it's not something you should have to figure out alone. My goal is to help people recognize their own value and truly believe in themselves!

Being a student-athlete has taught me a lot about balancing school, sports, family and friends. While I feel lucky to have all of these things in my life, figuring out priorities and time management can be overwhelming at times. Talking to older athletes who had been in a similar position really helped me navigate all sorts of situations. Getting a chance to ask them questions and hearing their advice and experiences made a big difference for me, especially during the recruiting process, which can be particularly confusing and stressful. I would like to be an athletic mentor for Athletes Better Together because it would be an honor to be someone younger athletes can turn to for advice, support, and reassurance as they go through the same challenges.

I want to be a mentor because I want younger athletes to feel like they have a safe space to talk about anything related to sports. I want to be someone they can relate to and connect with. In sports growing up, I was a shy kid when I was out of my comfort zone, often times struggled with confidence (for example joining laxachusetts in third grade coming from Braintree where not many other kids played lacrosse really & going to Thayer when I didn’t know anyone at first). That was not always easy, as I didn’t really have anyone I could really go to for advice. As I grew older, I made so many connections and friends, and lacrosse became the thing I looked forward to the most and I fell in love with the game because of how much fun I began to have. Long story short, I want to be there for a younger kid who may just need a little guidance or encouragement along their journey because something little like that can really go a long way and could positively impact a kid.

I played youth sports in Winchester MA. I focused on hockey and lacrosse in my youth and devoted equal time to both. I transferred to private school in high school and continued to play both hockey and lacrosse, but began to focus more heavily on lacrosse. I committed to Princeton for lacrosse in September of my junior year of high school. I am now a freshman on the Princeton Men's Lacrosse Team.

I am very interested in being a mentor, because I would love to be able to share my experiences in becoming a collegiate athlete with next generation of athletes. I had a very difficult but rewarding process to get where I am today and I would love to be able to mentor younger athletes and help them achieve their goals.

I want to be a mentor because I grew up as the only lacrosse player in my family, so I had to rely on advice from coaches, and older teammates. Those role models showed me how to become better on and off the field. I wanted to join Athletes Better Together because these people inspired me to give back to younger kids going through similar experiences. I'm super excited to join this community and give back!

I played ice hockey from around age four to sixteen and started lacrosse in Middle school. I have been playing since. Within high school I competed as an Under Armour All American Goalies as well as an American select Goalie. I was a captain my junior and senior years. Along with this I earned USA Lacrosse All-American and the Jackie Pitt award my senior year. While at Manhattan College I redshirted due to a concussion. I then decided to transfer for my sophomore season to play at Northern Michigan University.
