Plays and Drills for
your Team

After his family moved from Florida to New Jersey, it didn’t take long for Conor Davidson to take his mother up on her suggestion that he give lacrosse a try.

It was a decision the senior at River Dell High School doesn’t regret.

Davidson verballed to attend Division III power Springfield College on Oct. 28, a commitment first reported by Joe Lombardi on LaxLessons.com’s Lacrosse Insider premium coverage section.

The 5-foot-9, 165-pound Davidson, a righty, is a dodging, two-way midfielder. An outstanding athlete, he’s also a sprinter for River Dell’s indoor track team.

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

What were the main factors in your decision?
I feel like (Springfield Head) Coach (Keith) Bugbee is a great coach and it is the perfect fit for school. I also like the attention to athletics that Springfield brings.

What other schools were you considering and what schools did you visit?
I was considering Frostburg State, Keene State, Lynchburg, Plattsburgh State and Washington & Lee. I had also visited Frostburg State, but once I visited Springfield I knew it was the one.

What are your strengths as a player and how would you describe your style of play?
I feel that I am good at moving off ball for the feed. I also feel like I can use my speed to separate from my defender when dodging from the top of the box.

What area of your game do you need to work on?
I would like to work on my time-and-room shooting to allow me to be a more complete offensive midfielder.

What travel team do you play on what showcase events did you participate in?
New Jersey Empire Elite. I participated in Southern States, Elite 100, Top 205 and the Under Armour Shootout.

Any final thoughts?
I would like to thank my parents the most for taking the time to take me to tournaments and to visit schools.
