Emily Hawryschuk

Emily Hawryschuk is this episode's guest, and I'm personally very excited for you all to hear about her journey. Emily grew up in Rochester, NY and we met at a Team USA training camp many years ago. Since then, I've grown to know her as the humble, dedicated, passionate player and person who plays with gratitude for the origins of the game and joy within herself. Throughout this episode we talk about her journey to playing for Syracuse for what would end up being 6 years due to COVID and an ACL injury in her 5th year. We also dive into the mental and physical battles she endures day in and day out to continue to be ready for the next opportunity to get out there and play.

 

Currently Emily has her sights set on the first ever Box Lacrosse World Championships for women this coming September of 2024. Having played alongside her, and getting the chance to train with her for this opportunity to make history now -- is incredibly special, and I'm hoping you all enjoy this conversation as much as I did.
