Performance of the Week: Detroit Country Day's Hadley Keating
June 16, 2023
Hadley Keating ♦ Detroit Country Day
Junior ♦ Lacrosse
Keating – Country Day’s leading scorer this season with 96 goals – connected on perhaps the most memorable of her high school career during the final minute of her team’s season. She found the net with nine seconds to play in Saturday’s Division 2 Final to carry the Yellowjackets past East Grand Rapids 13-12 – clinching Country Day’s first MHSAA championship in girls lacrosse.
Those 96 goals tied for 18th-most for a single season in MHSAA history, and she’s climbing the career list as well with a chance to finish among the top 10 all-time; she also led Country Day in scoring in 2022 when the team finished Division 2 runner-up. She’s the latest star from an accomplished sports family – her father Blase played tennis collegiately and professionally, her oldest sister Annie was a two-time Finals doubles champion for Bloomfield Hills Academy of the Sacred Heart, and middle sister Kelleigh also was a high school tennis champion and played lacrosse at Stanford. Hadley has committed to sign with Notre Dame’s women’s lacrosse program and is considering majoring in economics with a minor in data science or computer science as she considers a career in investment banking.
