Overcoming Fear and Ego with Syracuse Lacrosse Player Mason Kohn

In this episode, we interview former Tufts lacrosse/hockey player
and current Syracuse lacrosse player, Mason Kohn.

We discuss his unconventional hockey career, where he began as a
10 year old, which is typically a later start to hockey. He
progressed slowly in the early years, always being one of the
under developed players. That is until he reached junior hockey
where he quickly rose through the ranks, eventually getting
drafted to the USHL.

Despite his quickly advancing hockey career, he ended up at Tufts
University where he struggled to find self confidence after
committing D3. He overcame his ego and found purpose in playing
for the guy next to him. Now, he has the opportunity to prolong
his lacrosse career at D1 Syracuse University.
