Athlete Profile: Carina Randazzo

LAKE PLACID-- Carina Randazzo of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho is not only a new addition to the girl’s hockey team here at National Sports Academy but also possibly the most vocal rookie NSA has ever had.

Randazzo chose to say her farewells to her friends and family in Idaho to pursue her passion for ice hockey at a higher level.

“Lake Placid is very different from my hometown,” Randazzo started, “because everyone here at NSA is so dedicated to their sport.”

Randazzo is much different from the other rookies this year.

Unlike most other NSA students, she is from a place where it is not uncommon to ride a horse to school.  It may seem absurd for anyone around the Adirondacks, or anywhere for that matter, however it is a part of everyday life in Idaho.

It has only been three short weeks here at NSA and Randazzo has already made a huge impression on the school community. Many people like the fact that she is outgoing and likes to be the center of attention, but many boy hockey players seem to get disgruntled by it.

Coach Vossler of NSA’s hockey team, said, “Dazzo brings energy to every situation, whether it is needed or not.”

Despite what some may think, Randazzo is an outstanding addition to NSA’s team, both on and off the ice.
