“Warrior is all about performance and giving lacrosse players the edge to play at the top of their game” said Westervelt. “I have always used Warrior and am fortunate to have the advantage of competing with Warrior products in both the MLL and FIL World Lacrosse Championships with Team USA. I am looking forward to the opportunity to continue to grow the game with the sports premier brand” he said.
Westervelt was recently named to the 23 man roster of Team USA that will compete in the FIL World Championship in Manchester, England from July 14-24, 2010. A former 1st Round pick (4th overall) of the Denver Outlaws of Major League lacrosse, Westervelt was the leagues 3rd leading scorer and an All-Star in 2009. He plays in the National Lacrosse League (NLL) with the Philadelphia Wings where in 2009 he was an NLL All Star and a Top Ten goal scorer in the league. Drew is a graduate of the University of Maryland, Baltimore County where he was an All-America and the schools 3rd All time leading scorer.
“There’s no question Drew is one of the most dominant offensive players in the sport today, but he’s also a guy that genuinely loves the game and wants to be out there with young players in the community. That to me is what separates him and makes him a perfect guy to represent our brand and support new initiatives going forward” said Mark Millon, Sports Marketing Director at Warrior.
