Grant Kaleikau - Bio
Plays Attack for University of Delaware
After graduating from Watkins Mill High School in 2007, attended
Bridgeton Academy for a year.
From Baltimore Sun Article
Q: You’re from Germantown, and you played at Watkins Mill High School in Gaithersburg. Were you recruited by any of the local programs?
A: Interestingly enough, I was recruited by Towson, and I was going to go to Towson, but at the time, I couldn’t get in. So I did a postgraduate year at Bridgeton Academy in Maine. I went there, and things didn’t work out at Towson. So I was kind of in a hole for a while and then out of nowhere, Delaware popped up, and thank God they did. But while I was at Watkins Mill, I was only recruited by Towson, Washington College, Quinnipiac.
Ken Senisi - Bio

HCC's motto - “You Can Get There from Here” and Coach Senisi's belief in the power of small steps is the fuel that drives Tommy Drury (Watkins Mill Alum) pursue his college degree and his WM Lacrosse Dreams.
