Another player from Utah has joined the ranks of an NCAA D-I commit when Grant Pierce committed to Furman University in South Carolina earlier this week. Pierce, who has transferred to Brighton High School, played for Judge last season, notching 32 goals and 14 assists in 11 games.
Perhaps the biggest influence for Pierce was Mike Acee, 212 Lacrosse founder.
“The very first person, the man who changed the course of my life, is Mike Acee,” said Pierce. “Coach Acee has been my private coach for the past three years and not only did he change every part of my game, but he really believed in me and never wavered. Coach Acee has made a huge difference in my life both on the field and off and not only is he my coach, he is my friend.”
