Chagrin Falls football linebacker Sean Mackin is a terrific two-sport athlete, starring on both the football field, as well as helping lead the lacrosse team.http://highschoolsports.cleveland.c...division-ii-boys-lacrosse-state-championship/

In fact, Mackin will be playing lacrosse at Syracuse, one of the top programs in the country. For Chagrin Falls lacrosse coach Crispin Napolitano, he said Mackin's leadership makes him great in both sports.

“I have been able to coach him for five seasons now, and he has just continued to grow as a leader,” Napolitano said. “He does a great job of leading on the field, but also tremendous in the locker room and off the field. The guys look up to him on our team, and just watching him on the football field, guys look to him to go out and make the plays.”

Both sports are physical, and Mackin said that playing both of them is definitely an advantage.

“Football definitely helps me with the way that I play defense in lacrosse,” Mackin said. “In lacrosse, I have to make sure that I stay in front of my man, and it is very similar to me jamming a receiver in football.

"Likewise, playing lacrosse also helps me in football with my agility and quickness."

Oh well. Hard to argue with a Harvard education.

Unless he wanted to major in Communications. Or Public Policy.
