Griffin Harris Pronunciation

TIFFANY ON HARRIS
2021 – “Crafty offensive weapon … more comfortable than it seems possible within close proximity of the crease and multiple swinging, slashing defenders … embraces smashing into the opponent while never losing sight of the net.” 2020 – “How often is there a clear and identifiable explosion in a college athlete’s abilities as a third-year?  This is exactly what we observed this fall in Charlottesville.  By November, Griffin was scoring goals in bunches daily.  Griffin’s discovery of the path to the realization of his greatest self has been tremendously productive for him and the program.  He is earning playing time and will most likely be used as an offensive midfielder this spring.” 2019 – “The flashes of his jaw-dropping, electrifying maneuvers around the cage stimulate our sport’s senses: consistency will critical for his continued rise up the depth chart.” 2018 – “With deceptive dodging skills and the ability to score with both hands, Griffin presents a variety of means for creating offense.  This first-year’s diverse talents are already being realized as Griffin has been able to leave his mark both as a midfielder and attackman.  There is a promising future ahead for Griffin as he continues the maturation process of his skills and scheme comprehension.”
