Penfield senior attackman Gio SanFillipo recently announced his decision to study and play lacrosse at Hood College (Maryland).

After one year with the Penfield Varsity, SanFillipo reports that he had a great summer playing at the Maryland Lacrosse Showcase Varsity A team where he averaged three points per game. It was his second year playing in the Showcase. In his junior year he was selected to play in the All-Star game.

He also played last summer on the Fellowship of Christian Athletes Northeast Elite team.

After being recruited by Hood Head Coach Brad Barber, Sanfillipo chose the small liberal arts college in Frederick. Maryland. The Blazers play in the Capital Conference and are an NCAA Division III school.

SanFillipo plans to study pre-med with the hope of pursuing a career as an anesthesiologis.
