Nils Thompson, Red Deer native, is in his sophomore season with the Bryant Bulldogs. Nils has been an instructor at The Lacrosse Program as well has worked out with our own Heather Osgood in the summer. Heather is the Director of Strength and Conditioning for The Lacrosse Program. Nils is one of those young men who has been driven to succeed. He wanted to play NCAA lacrosse so he made the commitment to leave home and attend Brodie Merrill’s Hill Academy. From there he was recruited to play lacrosse at Bryant University.
I made contact with Nils as he is preparing for the upcoming season. He said that he is very excited about the upcoming season and is hoping to crack the second or third midfield line. The competition for roster spots is competitive and they have a very deep team. They open up their season in Philadelphia against St Josephs University.
