Taylor McDaniels ledger:

High School: Our Lady Of Good Counsel High School, Olney, Maryland

Graduation Year: 2017

Position: Attack/Midfield

College Choice: University of North Carolina

Club Affiliation: FSLAX 2009–2013

What will you major in/study? Sports Medicine

Why did you choose UNC? “I chose UNC because of the welcoming atmosphere, the academic selections, the excellent women’s lacrosse program and the opportunity to follow in my father’s footsteps as a student athlete.”

Outlook for your High School team? “We are going to win the WCAC.”

Thank You: “I want to thank both my parents for sacrificing and supporting me so I could follow my passion of playing lacrosse at a higher level. I also want to thank FSLAX director Bill Sardella for seeing potential in a 9 year old whom he allowed to join his club and play with the older girls each and every year. Without the FSLAX coaching of Bill Sardella, Vinny Naylor and especially Steve Heine I would not have developed into the player I am.”
