Michael, a writer for the Knight Errant, is hoping for his fourth consecutive captain spot on C-Squad lacrosse this year; he continues to always be the best at everything he does. You may know him for his many talents on the field or “that one kid who is somehow so good at everything.” Though it’s difficult being this amazing, he tries his best to always stay humble. #RememberYourRoots.
