Senior captain Connor Mahan is a dedicated and passionate student athlete who does everything necessary to get the job done.
Mahan is always motivated in being the best he can be and is someone his teammates look up to. He’s been playing lacrosse for 12 years and is committed to going to Western New England University where he plans to continue playing lacrosse and considering football as well.
“I push him everyday in practice to be better when I cook him in a 1v1, it then translates to the field, and he uses that drive from practice to play great in the game. He is also a great leader which is why we call him Commander Conrad,” sophomore Issac Gerber told The Prowl.
Mahan started playing lacrosse as an attackman but saw the need for people to play defense and took the opportunity to be a D Pole and has become really successful ever since.
¨Great teammate and leader to help keep focused on our goals,¨ senior Max Plunske said.
Even as a D Pole, Mahan still manages to score for the Cats, scoring 4 goals in just this season alone, and he doesn’t plan on stopping anytime soon.
“We call him Coach Connor for a reason; he works super hard and always cheers us on. He teaches us to never give up and try our best whether we are practicing or playing. He’s not just a team leader, he’s a really cool friend too,” senior Brett Feher explained.
“I’m motivated by my coaches and teammates to help do everything I can do to win,” Mahan stated.
Mahan has over 200 ground balls in his 4 year high school career, and, when he’s not playing lacrosse, you can still find him traveling around doing tournaments with his friends: senior Tom Dehaes, and Max Plunske.
