Thayer Academy (MA) 2016 goalie Sam Knollmeyer has committed to play Division III lacrosse at Hamilton College.
Sam Knollmeyer ledger:
High School: Thayer Academy, MA
Graduation Year: 2016
Position: Goalie
College Choice: Hamilton College
Club Affiliation: Laxachusetts
Major lacrosse honors, camps and showcases: Legacy Fall Showcase All Star, ECLC All Star, Legacy invitational All Star.
What will you major in/study? Economics, Political Science
Why did you choose school? “Hamilton was everything I wanted in a school: great academics, great lacrosse, a beautiful campus, and an open curriculum. The coaching staff is very interested in winning a NESCAC championship and a NCAA championship.”
Thoughts on your HS team’s season? “Thayer came off of an ISL championship run in 2014 graduating a bunch of key senior starters. This year, we played some great lacrosse and beat Governor’s Academy (this year’s ISL champions).”
Thank You: “I want to first off thank Coach Scott, who inspired me to drop the video games, and pick up lacrosse. If it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t be playing lacrosse right now. I also want to thank my parents for putting up with my club lax and recruiting events – and me for that matter. Can’t forget Coach Curran at Thayer who helped me transition into the ISL this year. Much love to them all.”
Other schools considered: Vassar, Swarthmore, Bowdoin, Middlebury
