On Tuesday, Nov. 16, 2021, North Penn senior Daniel Myers was recognized for committing to continue his lacrosse careers at the collegiate level.
Daniel Myers – Chestnut Hill College (Lacrosse)
Major: Business
Final list of colleges: Chestnut Hill, Eastern, Stevenson, Arcadia
Reasons for choosing Chesnut Hill: “I chose Chestnut Hill because I loved the bond that the coach had with all his players, and I loved how close the school was to my house.”
Coach Rick Smith says: “I remember five or six years ago Danny being a young athlete in middle school coming to the lacrosse games and being on the sidelines watching his older brother play,
and I couldn’t wait to get the opportunity to coach Danny throughout his four years at North Penn High School. Sophomore year is a very big year when you’re developing from a junior varsity to a varsity player, and our spring sport athletes lost that opportunity. Danny kind of took advantage of the opportunity. He didn’t put his head down, he kept playing. He plays travel lacrosse for the Dukes, and he continued to develop as a player. Danny is not a vocal leader, Danny is not a screamer or yeller. Rather, Danny is the type of player when he’s on the lacrosse field he’s going to make that game-changing play, and the game of lacrosse is all about momentum. He focuses on the fundamentals so well. He’s not a finesse guy, he just does all the little things right and he does them well. I have a standard for my players at North Penn High School, and the standard is to make good choices inside this building and conduct yourselves as very good citizens, and Danny absolutely does that. It’s more important to me that he makes important decisions outside of this building and he turns into a great young man, and he will absolutely do great things at Chestnut Hill. I’m looking forward to his senior year at North Penn. He was a unanimous junior captain last year, and he will lead this team to many victories this year. Chestnut Hill College is definitely going to benefit from Danny. They won their conference last year, and I’m looking forward to seeing him play at the next level.”
