Boys Varsity Lacrosse: Bernie Ward Commitment Award
Dan Wilson entered every practice and game with the mentality of “I’m going to run as hard as I can for as long as I can.” Dan is a true competitor whose commitment to the boys lacrosse team is unwavering. A very talented athlete, Dan became a clearing and ground ball machine for our team. Consistently picking up the big ground ball when we needed it most and being able to progress the ball up the field. The coaching staff never questioned his work ethic in practice as Danny routinely finished first in most running drills. Danny is also a consistent contributor in our offense tallying 24 goals and 10 assists on the season. The coaching staff is very proud of the young man that Dan has become and know that he will bring this same level of dedication next year as he goes on to play at the Naval Academy Prep School
