Harney Player Bound for NCAA DI

Harney/Nadzitsaga Lacrosse senior midfielder/attackman Andrew Roy has committed to play lacrosse 
at Mount Saint Mary's University in Emmitsburg, Maryland. The 6'4" 220 lb Roy, scored over 40 goals 
in each of his sophomore and junior seasons and averages seven groundballs a game. He was a Second 
Team All Conference Midfielder in 2009. Roy also can play effectively as a long stick midfielder and 
close defenseman. Roy will be majoring in Sports Management. 

"I visited Mount Saint Mary's in January and loved the campus.  The school is a great fit because 
I come from a devout Catholic family, Coach Tom Gravante was great and I can learn a lot from him
both on and off the field, the players were very friendly and the campus was beautiful."   

"Playing for FCA-North at the Gait Cup last summer got me noticed by a bunch of college coaches and
 really increased my confidence to play at the next level. Espcially since my high school team is very
 new, very rural, and not very well known, even in Oregon."

It really came down to two great schools in the end, Mount Saint Mary's and the College of Mount Saint 
Joseph.  Both schools have great Catholic traditions, great academics, both had my major, strong athletics 
and great campus communities. I wanted to play at the D1 level and Coach Gravante and Mount Saint Mary's 
gave me that opportunity."
