Sam D'Amico's Men's Ice Hockey Recruiting Profile

Personal Statement

Hi Coach... I want a career that aligns to my strengths; good with people, respectful, hard working, tenacious.  I have grown up in a family of entrepreneurs and business people.  I want to Educate myself in this area and either work in the "family" business or start my own.  I have had good role models.  Teaching also interests me.  

I am ready to give 100% to win championships.  I am a well rounded Defensemen.  I play an offensive game but take care of my defensive responsibilities.   I use my physical size but play smart.  I put the team first.  I am a leader on my team, on and off the ice.  I play both the penalty kill and power play.  I am a good communicator.  I will "out work" everyone.

My high standards, goal setting and work ethic always separates me from others; academically and with athletics.  When I arrive at the rink to play hockey, I am ready!   I take care of my body and mind equally.

What drives me in hockey drives me in the classroom...  to be successful.  I apply the same principles in both arenas (no pun intended)!  I won the service award at school.

I take an active role volunteering in my community.  My recent accomplishment was in Kenya, Africa.  I raised money for the education of the Massai Girls and 2 nights before my 10 K race I decided to run the FULL Marathon with my Mother.  We crossed the finish line together.  I am now a marathoner!
