The Story

Lacrosse became my game through pure work. I was willing to put in the time, and got after it — every day after class, drilling the fundamentals until they were second nature, then competing at full speed.

I competed at the college level — and I learned exactly what it takes to get there.

I competed at the NCAA Division 3 level at Centenary before continuing in the MCLA Division 2 at High Point University, where I graduated with a degree in Sport Management.

I've coached across baseball, softball, and lacrosse — multiple coaching jobs and camps. But this one is different. Shoreline Athletics is about using everything I learned — the work ethic, the college experience, the love for the game — to give every athlete the kind of coaching I wish I'd had earlier.

Whether you're eight years old or twenty-two, just picked up a stick or preparing for a college tryout — Build around your skill level and future goals.
