“I chose Hobart and William Smith because of the overwhelming amount of support the lacrosse program and the school both offer. Coach Phillips has great expectations for the team, and I’m very excited to be a part of this program soon!”

“Being patient is the best advice I can give to younger Blast players that are beginning the recruiting process. It’s a long process, but just know that at the end, there is always a perfect school for each player. Never lose confidence in yourself.”

“My favorite part about playing Philly Blast Lacrosse was that every player was extremely unselfish. It was always a team effort on and off the field.”

“I would like to thank all of my lacrosse coaches throughout the years and especially my school lacrosse coach, Josie Ferri for always pushing me to become a better lacrosse player. I would also like to thank my parents for supporting me since day one.”
