ATHLETE SPOTLIGHT: JOSH CASTILLO

FREDRICK MISLEH
STAFF WRITER

Josh Castillo, a sophomore in CSUSM’s Political Science program, has a busy schedule. In addition to balancing his school and social life, Castillo also plays on the CSUSM Men’s Lacrosse team. I sat down with him and asked about his experiences with the team and how he juggles school, friends and sports.

Q: What position do you play?

A: I play defense.

Q: What other sports have you played in your life?

A: Baseball. I played baseball for most of my life. Then I was converted to wrestling in high school and mainly stuck with that. Lacrosse came in college, and I wanted to try something new.

Q: What’s the best part about playing lacrosse for CSUSM?

A: Just hanging out with the guys and having a lot of fun. We might lose, but it’s still really fun. Hang out, play some lacrosse, just have a good time.

Q: If someone were thinking of joining the lacrosse team or any team in general, what advice would you give him/her?

A: Just go ahead and do it. It can’t hurt to try, and it’s a lot of fun and a great experience. Just make sure you stay on top of your homework.
