Luca D’Ambrosio is a four-year Varsity hockey player for Xavier. As Team Captain, Luca is a young man who demonstrates all the qualities and characteristics that, for whatever reason, are rarely seen in a person of today’s society. He is a dedicated conscientious worker at whatever the task and understands the meaning of sacrifice, work ethic, respect, obligation and commitment. He willingly accepts responsibility, regardless of the challenge, and will not stop until he is satisfied with the result of his performance to exceed expectations. His “can do – never quitâ€_x009d_ attitude combined with his genuine concern for his team shows his unselfishness and compassion to others, which differs from today’s more common “what’s in it for meâ€_x009d_ approach. His ambition and focus will result in nothing less than successful accomplishments in his future endeavors. Luca is exemplary and well-deserving of the honor being selected for the 2020 Hobey Baker High School Character Award.
