Jake Tomsik ledger:

Club Affiliation: 3d New England

What will you major in/study? Undecided
Why did you choose school? “I chose Georgetown for its rich Catholic history, academic status, and campus feel. I am a strong believer in Christ and I loved how Georgetown is the oldest Catholic and Jesuit university in the country. Georgetown is also an amazing school academically, which was a major reason why I chose this school. The University is located in Washington D.C., right on the Potomac River. When you are in the middle of campus you feel like you are outside of the city, which I really like. I wanted to be near a city, but not right in the middle of one.”
Outlook for your High School team? “I am confident we will be one of the most talented teams in New England next year. We are bringing in a bunch of committed Post-Graduates and an amazing freshmen class, along with some new sophomores. If we can learn to play together as a team I don’t think anybody will be able to keep up with us.”
Thank You: “I would like to thank God for this opportunity to play Division 1 college lacrosse, as it has been my dream since I was a kid. I would also like to thank my family for their continued support throughout my lacrosse career. Lastly, I would like to thank my coaches, John Wait, Jack Piatelli, Keith Campbell, Steve Moreland, and Dave Jenkins for their time and instruction to make me the player I am today.”
Other schools considered: Cornell, BU, Brown, and Penn
