Credentials:
H.L. Bourgeois standout Laresah Gros is a heck of a soccer player. And she still has three years to compete at the varsity level. As a freshman, Gros was a major contributor for the Lady Braves, while serving as an attacking midfielder. The Lady Braves’ standout said she’s been playing the sport since she was 7, touting that she has a very clear dream – to be a college athlete. Once away from the soccer cleats, Gros said she wants to become a veterinarian – another goal that she said she’s had ever since she’s been a young child.
