Plays and Drills for
your Team

If there’s one word that best sums up Stephen Quinzi, it would be versatility.

The junior from Pittsford High School (N.Y.), located 10 miles southeast of Rochester, can play midfield or attack, and is strong with either hand.

So it should come as no surprise that Quinzi has become the 15th junior from the Sweetlax travel program to commitment to a Division I program.

Quinzi has decided on Georgetown University, as first reported at Twitter.com/joe_lombardi.

Now, here a Q&A with Stephen on his commitment.

What were the main factors in your decision?
The quality of the education and prestige of the university, the great coaching staff and players that have been very accommodating and have made me feel welcome and the campus setting and location.

What other schools were you considering and what schools did you visit?
Cornell, Yale and Boston University. I visited Cornell and Yale.

What are your strengths as a player and how would you describe your style of play?
I can play attack and middie, can dodge and shoot with both hands and I play hard all of the time.

How did you get introduced to lacrosse and what other sports have you played?
My older brother got me into the game when he first started playing. I continue to play soccer, and I was an Alpine ski racer up until this year.

Who have been some of the biggest influences on you during your development as a player?
My brother, my dad and all the coaches I have had through the years, especially (Pittsford Head) Coach (Andrew) Whipple, (Sweetlax) Coach (Kevin) Martin, (Pittsford Assistant) Coach (Dave) Thering and Coach Pound.
