Animated Lacrosse
Plays and Drills for
your Team

The 5-foot-10, 173-pound lefty plays an aggressive and physical style and is relentless in his pursuit of groundballs.

Now, here’s a Q&A with Jack on his commitment.

What were the main factors in your decision?
Academics, coaches and knowing that I would still like where I’m at if lacrosse wasn’t there.

What other schools were you considering and what schools did you visit?

Army, Penn State and Binghamton. I made visits to Syracuse, Fairfield,  Boston Univeristy, Delaware and Providence.

What are your strengths as a player and how would you describe your style of play?
I like to get physical. I like playing defense and getting groundballs. If there is a scrum, there is a good chance that I’ll be the one coming out with it.
People describe my style of play as “Old School.” I’m not a flashy player. I just play the game and play it hard.

What area of your game do you need to work on?
I need to work on all parts of my game if I want to make an impact at the college level.

How did you get introduced to lacrosse and what other sports have you played?
I got introduced by a family friend at the age of 6. Nobody played lacrosse in my family, so it was different. Where my dad grew up, there wasn’t lacrosse around.

Along with lacrosse, I play football. I started varsity as a freshman at strong safety. During my sophomore season, I started at strong safety and wide receiver. I also play basketball in a recreational league.

What travel team do you play on what showcase events did you participate in?
I play on Team United CNY. I love playing for them. All coaches are the best around and make the summer tournaments a fun expierience.

After my freshman year, I went to Top 205 at Towson. After this past summer, I went to Maverik Showtime and the Capital Challenge.

Any final thoughts?
I would like to thank my parents, family and friends that helped guide me to my ultimate goal of playing lacrosse at the highest level.

A special thanks to Ric Beardsley, Steve Carcaterra and the rest of the coaches on Team United. They are the best at doing what they do and I love playing for them.
