"My wife and I wanted to thank you for all of your support and guidance through this recruiting process. We were overwhelmed by the opportunities presented and we found it hard to chose from the all of the great programs available at virtually all of the universities. It was difficult, stressful and confusing to us, but your guidance was invaluable to us and to Sam. He is very excited with his choice and I am sure he will have a great experience at Notre Dame. We look forward to our experience with Titanium Elite this summer. Thank you again for all you did for us and for our son."
Jim and Amy Hubbard, parents of Sam Hubbard (Cincinnati Moeller, OH - 2014 Notre Dame verbal commit)
"I wanted to drop you a quick line and say thanks to you personally and the Titanium Lacrosse program for the help with Daniel in landing a spot on a Division 1 lacrosse team, but more importantly in helping him become a better lacrosse player. With Dan playing for a new developing high school program, it is clear to me that Titanium was responsible for allowing him the opportunities to be seen by college coaches and ultimately being in a position to play at the next level. Specifically, I think Titanium coaches (AJ Auld, Matt Caffarelli, Sean McGinnis, and Marshall Burkhart) work with players to get them ready for the summer tournaments. As important, Titanium teams are loaded with talented kids who desire to play at the next level. And lastly, Titanium selects tournaments that are known to attract college coaches. As a parent, I have found the Titanium program to be one with clear objectives, good coaches, abundant player opportunities, and excellent communication.
The class of 2012 has been a very impressive one for Titanium with a host of college commitments. It is not a surprise to me, as the program continues to improve and offer a wide variety of opportunities for those who want to take their game to the next level. So AJ—thanks, I appreciate what you have done for central Ohio lacrosse and for my son!”
Mike Bull, father of Daniel Bull (Olentangy Orange, OH – 2012 VMI commit)
“Coach Auld,
We are all very excited that Coach Myers thought enough of Dan to offer him a chance to be a part of the OSU lacrosse team.
We are thankful that Dan had the opportunity to attend the Titanium clinics and play with the Titanium team last summer and the fall of 2009. The instructions he received at the clinics and the level of play he experienced with the team were certainly instrumental in making Dan's OSU dream come true. Dan benefited greatly from the time he spent with Titanium.
Thank you so much for inviting Dan to be a part of Titanium.”
Cindy, Rob and Dan Flake (Medina, OH – 2012 Ohio State commit)
“Thanks for a great tournament! What a great time. My son is learning so much and is having fun as well. I appreciate you getting back to me with the dates for practice. That helps so much in my planning. He would much rather play lacrosse than go to bb camp!” –2015 player parent
“Thanks for all your efforts on behalf of the boys, and my son had a wonderful time. We are thrilled with his progress as well as the chemistry of the team that came a long way during those five games and for a summer experience seems to be more finely developed than is normally the case. We were very pleased with the weekend and the way Titanium went about presenting a presence at the Showcase. He's gained more in a week and a half than I believe he was exposed to in a month and a half during March and April and we're grateful to have you playing a role in his continued development.” – 2014 player parent
“As a parent of a student athlete, I am so appreciative of a sports program that lays out a clear mission and works hard to position athletes for success. As a communication professional, I value a well thought out strategy to communicate that mission to athletes, parents, coaches and opponents.
I am very impressed with the quality of the communication and organization of the Titanium Lacrosse program. Titanium Lacrosse is professional, providing timely information through a comprehensive website that is very user friendly. The clinics and tryouts are also extremely well organized and reflect the values established by the program leaders—gratitude, integrity, sportsmanship and excellence.” – 2012 player parent
“I heard a number of parents express their thanks for the Titanium club being formed to give more boys from clubs the opportunity that did not exist before Titanium. My son had a great time.” – 2012 player parent
“Thank you for the lacrosse experience this weekend in Annapolis. My son had a really good time, as did I, with your Titanium 1 team. A very talented team of players you put together I might add. The coaches were great and very effective communicating to the team from what I saw. The college coaches got some good looks at some great players. All in all, and great weather thrown in there, it was a very good experience.” – 2013 player parent
“I thought the UP Lax event was really top notch. The Titanium coaches did an excellent job! The boys really like them. The event itself was well organized; the information you provided via email was very complete. The number of boys on the team was close to optimal as it gave all that attended a good amount of playing time. There were a lot of college coaches. I think this is an event where I would say, don't change anything about the way you approach or organize.” – 2012 player parent
“Playing for Team Titanium at Top 16 and Champ Camp was the best mix of top-level play, incredible competition and fun I have ever had playing lacrosse. Coach Auld was incredible and the lacrosse talent he assembled was unbelievable. Not only were they all great Division I recruits they were great guys. I learned a lot about what it takes to play at the next level from team Titanium and Coach Auld. Anybody who gets an invitation to play for TL should jump on it if they are serious about playing D1 Lax.”
– Zach Wood (IL), University of Virginia class of 2016
“I had a ton of fun at Champ Camp with Titanium as well with the Under Armour Midwest team. It was fun to play against the great competition, as well as having the type of players we had on the Titanium team. I really enjoyed meeting all of the kids from around the country and made a couple of very good friends. The Under Armour team was fun because you really got to see the team get better and better as the games went on, which is a testament to the brilliant coach we had. All in all, both were great experiences.”
– Rhody Heller (CO), University of Virginia class of 2015
“Champ Camp is an incredible experience because you have the opportunity to play in front of the top D1 coaches. The friends you make from that team you will have forever because you will most likely play against them the rest of your college career. The competition is great and being able to play for Team Titanium is incredible. I would do it again in a heartbeat because of the teammates and coach.
The Under Armour Midwest Team is in its own category. Just being able to play against the top kids in the country in a round robin tournament in front of the highest D1 coaches was unreal. And most likely those kids you are playing against will eventually be your teammates or kids you play against the rest of your life. I am very close to all the kids that I had the chance to play with and always will be. We wouldn't have gotten as far as we did if it wasn't for a great coach.”
