Why do you play?
I love being competitive and playing a position that is physically and mentally challenging.
Why are you a goalie?
I don't really know. Physically and mentally challenging.
How important is the goalie position?
One of the most important positions in the sport. A goalie can change the course of the game.
Any advice for aspiring goalies?
Always stay positive! The best goalies in the game get scored on at least 6 times a game. Be a leader for your team.
Quote regarding the goalie position
As the last line of defense, goalies are the backbone of the defense and the ones who lead the team.

 

Coming into the spring we felt Chris Garrity was the best in the country; he has play very solid lacrosse, but probably not at quite the level he is accustomed to at his stage of his career. We feel he is just now getting into a groove, and he will be the key to our success down the stretch of the season.

- Head Coach Glenn Thiel
