Senior Louis Dubick

Senior Louis Dubick verbally committed to the University of Maryland at College Park as a sophomore after the 2011-2012 spring season, but Dubick officially signed as a Terrapin for the 2016 season Nov. 12.

Dubick shined in his four years as a Bulldog, scoring 189 goals and having 175 assists in his first three lacrosse seasons. Dubick was named an All-American lacrosse player for each of his three years at CHS, and he plans to continue his extraordinary performance at the college level.

“I am just looking forward to getting on campus and putting in the work with a national championship team,” Dubick said.

Though Dubick has an incredible opportunity ahead of him, he will continue to work hard with the Bulldogs to cap off his final season on a high note.

According to Dubick, he hopes that a state championship comes out of this upcoming lacrosse season.
