My name is Nick DiRado and I’m currently a junior at South Lyon High School in South Lyon, Michigan.  I’m a Defenseman and can play with both my left and right hands as well as play LSM.   I am 6’ 2â€ 200 lbs. and can do the 40 in sub 5 time.  In the off season I’m being coached by Dwayne Hicks, current coach of Eastern Michigan University.  I have two goals for myself: to play D-1 lacrosse and get a great education at the same time.   I’m working really hard to reach my goals.  Over this past summer I was chosen to play on a Travel Team, coached by Coach Hicks,  that competed in several tournaments and finished by competing in New Jersey at the East Coast Lacrosse Wars Tournament.  During this past lacrosse season at my high school I was voted Best Defensemen and also received honors of All Area Dream Team and All Area Kenningston Valley Conference First Team.  This fall I’m working with Coach Hicks as well as playing Varsity Hockey for South Lyon High School.  In October I competed in the 7 v7 at Ohio State and I’ll also be playing in the 7 v 7 tournament at U of M on November 11.  The team name that I’ll be playing under is Storm.  Thanks for your time.  If you happen to be at the U of M tournament I’d really like the opportunity to meet you.
