Human Over Athlete and Goalie Mental Health with Madi Weaver – Episode 243

On this episode of the Lax Goalie Rat podcast, I’m joined by rising high school senior and DII commit Madison Weaver.

Madi is heading into her senior year at Jefferson Forest High School and plays for Valley Select Lacrosse out of Forest, VA.

Madi has committed to the fairly new Emory and Henry College to play Division 2 and pursue her passion for playing lacrosse goalie throughout her time in college.

Madi is a huge advocate of Morgan’s Message, a program that provides mental health resources for athletes. “Human over athlete” is something I always says Madi.

Madi has been playing lacrosse for 10 years and has never given up on her passion for this sport even through obstacles such as broken thumbs, being the only goalie on a team, and people not believing in her.

But even thought all that she never let that stop her from achieving her dream of playing Division 2 lacrosse in college.

Great conversation with this young goalie.
