BIO
There’s the team atmosphere, physicality of the game and the desire to continually improve and learn new skills. From day one, it was there for Prince – the love of the game. Prince’s older sister played field hockey for the youth program and she wanted to join as well. “I always want to be the best I can be and give myself goals. If it doesn’t happen in the short term it doesn’t mean you can’t accomplish it in the long term. You just need to come up with a plan, stick to it and keep positive.” Prince brings a tremendous amount of enthusiasm and skill to Team USA as a new addition to the roster.
