Michael Reale '16 Recruiting Profile

I have a very interesting and unique lacrosse background.  In first grade, I started playing box lacrosse in Ontario,Canada.  4 years later, I moved to Severna Park, Maryland where I played in the lacrosse hotbed for 5 years on elite club teams (Baltimore Crabs and Annapolis Hawks). I have been fortunate to play for multiple coaches and learn from some of the best in the game. Going into my Freshman year of High School, my family moved to Westport, Connecticut. At Staples High School, I started on attack as a freshman. Sophomore year, I led the offense and racked up 62 points (29 goals, 33 Assists). I played in 15 games, missing 6 games due to injury. I led the team in points, and won the leading assists award. I believe moving several times in my life has built a lot of character. Each time I moved, my skill and team player mentality have allowed me to learn and be successful in a new environment.
