Ethan Bertrand is a Junior at the Out-of-Door Academy who had transferred from Manatee High School. Ethan said “I transferred from Manatee because I felt like I would get a better education here than I would at Manatee. I grew up playing a variety of sports until I started playing club lacrosse. I would say that I am a better lacrosse player than I am a football player because of my size. I am a tall and skinny guy. I’ve been playing sports for a very long time because of my club coach. He introduced me to ODA and he’s the reason I am here today.”
