Two-sport Tahoma High School standout Brody Sullivan has made a verbal commitment to play lacrosse at the University of Mount Olive in North Carolina.

Sullivan, who will captain the Tahoma lacrosse team for the second year this spring and winner of two school letters in football, is the second student-athlete from Tahoma last month to commit to play lacrosse at the NCAA level. Two weeks ago Tahoma’s Hudson Taylor signed a National Letter of Intent to play at NCAA Division II University of the District of Columbia.

Following graduation this spring, Sullivan will join a Division II Mount Olive squad that already includes nine Washington state players. The upcoming 2015 freshman class features four from the Evergreen state.

“It’s an honor to play at Mount Olive,” said Sullivan, a 6 foot, 200 pound midfielder, in a press release. “I feel privileged to have the opportunity.”

As a junior at Tahoma, Sullivan was selected to the Division I SPSL/Narrows All-Conference First Team, posting 34 points (19g, 15a) and 41 ground balls. The Bears finished on top of the SPSL/Narrows Conference with a 13-5-0 record, missing the state title game by a single goal after falling to Washington state Division I runner-up Issaquah High School in the state semifinals.

At Mount Olive, Sullivan plans to study criminal justice and potentially pursue a career in law enforcement. It’s a field that captured his interest while doing a job-shadow with a Maple Valley police officer during his junior year.
