LGR 255: Being the Best with Maryland recruit Aidan Seibel

In this episode of the LAX Goalie Rat Podcast, Coach Damon Wilson sits down with Aidan Seibel, the #1 ranked high school goalie in his class and future Maryland Terrapin. Aidan shares his incredible lacrosse journey—from his first time jumping into goal as a determined fourth grader to becoming an All-American, MIAA Player of the Year, and committing to his dream school, the University of Maryland.

Throughout the conversation, Aidan dives into his training regimen, mindset hacks, and routines that help him play with confidence and swagger. He discusses the importance of getting out of your comfort zone, working hard beyond practice, and his pregame ritual of squirting water into the air to form the number 1—reminding himself that he’s the best on the field.

Aidan also talks about the lessons he’s learned from top coaches like Scotty Rodgers, the Goalie Smith team, and Jack Runkel at the Goalie Workshop.
