Next up in our recruit profile series is Grayson Goodyear. Goodyear hails from Morrison, Colorado and will graduate this year from Valor Christian High School in Highlands Ranch, Colorado. Goodyear was previously committed to Vermont, but after a coaching change, Goodyear felt Utah would be a better fit. Being from Colorado, Goodyear favors the outdoors – skiing and mountain biking are among his favorite things to do when not on the field. Goodyear has two sisters and a younger brother.

TH: Have you been to Utah before?
GG: I have been a few times before and when I visited I was very impressed and I felt at home. I am from Denver so it is very similar while still leaving the state, which is what I wanted. My parents also lived in Salt Lake when they first got married so I was ecstatic when Utah popped up on my radar.
TH: What awards/team awards have you earned while in High School both academically and athletically?
GG: I was all conference my sophomore and junior year for varsity lacrosse. My sophomore year we came in second place in the state tournament and then won the state championship my Junior year. I was also part of National Honors Society my Freshman and Junior year for academic excellence.
Goodyear played club lacrosse with 3d Colorado, Doco and Evolve. To top it off, Goodyear is most excited to be a Utah Ute and major in exercise science or physical therapy.
I am incredibly blessed to officially have a home for the next 4 years. I cannot wait to see where this school will take me @UtahLacrosse pic.twitter.com/1V7agxjQP8
