What is Youth Athlete of the Year?
Learn MoreThe things Mason loves most about playing lacrosse is that lacrosse isn’t something every kid had in their play bin. It’s something that isn’t easy at the start, I think that is why he enjoys it so much because he can’t just kick a ball or throw a ball you have to learn to use a lacrosse stick by throwing, catching, cradling and even shooting. With lacrosse if you are even athletic it will still be a challenge for you. This is why Mason loves lacrosse because of the challenges it creates.
My teammate inspired me throughout my lacrosse journey by always giving their best effort and pushing everyone around them to improve. They encouraged me when I was frustrated, celebrated my successes, and reminded me that hard work pays off. Watching their determination and positive attitude motivated me to stay focused, keep improving, and become a better player and teammate every day.
My proudest moment wasn’t about the goals or the wins. It was seeing his effort, his discipline, and the way he kept pushing when things got tough. Watching him grow into a resilient, respectful and dedicated person means more to me than anything else.
