Prina Patel
Prina leads through her high level and intensity of play. She never slacks off
in a game or in practice. She is a motivated athlete who consistently puts forth
her best effort. Prina's greatest strengths are her vision of the field, her dodges/stick
work and her accurate passing. Prina is able to tackle or intercept passes and
quickly find the gaps through which to pass the ball to her teammates. She is
great at switching the field and finding openings in the defense. She is also
aggressive on goal and was the 2nd highest scorer on the team this past season.
She is a highly versatile player who can play forward, mid or back

q On which coach has inspired her the most:
o "Denise Eachus has been an inspiration to me because she really understands
what it is like to be not only a student in high school, but an athlete as well.
She has been so supportive of my field hockey aspirations and has encouraged
me to talk to college coaches and really get my name out there. With all the
injuries that I have endured, I wouldn't have had the courage or mindset to
get back up so quickly with Coach Eachus
