LGR 247: Goalie Coaching Tips with Maryland goalie JJ Suriano

On this episode of the Lax Goalie Rat Podcast, I am joined by a redshirt sophomore attending the University of Maryland, JJ Suriano.

JJ Suriano came from arguably the biggest hotbed for lacrosse, Baltimore, Maryland. She attended Bryn Mawr School where she was a four-year varsity starter. She was 2021, 2022, and 2023 IAAM A-Conference All-Conference Team.

On September 1st of her Junior year, her phone was buzzing receiving multiple calls from college coaches. One college stuck out to her, Maryland.

She had a visit scheduled for the 8th of September. At that visit, she recalls it was everything she wanted academically, socially, and from lacrosse. She felt the team was very connected and close and knew she wanted to become a Terrapin.

She was advised by her college coaches not to commit so quickly, but she knew where her heart was set and committed to The University of Maryland on September 9th, 2021, and never looked back.
