TINTON FALLS – Senior Peter Gerhard of Colts Neck has accepted Bucknell University’s offer to join the university’s nationally ranked Division I Men’s Lacrosse Team in the fall of 2015.
Gerhard currently serves as Ranney’s Varsity Boys’ Lacrosse Team captain, a role he has had since 10th grade – and a role that has helped him to be a mentor for younger players.
He began playing the sport in the third grade and has been a member of Ranney lacrosse since middle school.
Gerhard is a midfielder member of the United Lacrosse Club Team and also plays on the Team United 2015 Black travel team. As part of his athletic path, he has participated in the United Capital Challenge Showcase Camp in Albany, N.Y.; the East Coast Lacrosse Camp Showcase at Dartmouth College; the Terrier Showcase at Boston University; the Crimson Showcase at Harvard University; and the Villanova Prospect Clinic at Villanova University.
He verbally committed to Bucknell in October 2013 and has had the university in his sights since he was a child, as both of his parents attended the school. Gerhard intends to study computer engineering.
