Reid came to the Adanacs by a trade with the Salmonbellies last year, which worked out well for both teams and both players – Brandon Goodwin was reunited with his brother and his father with the Bellies and Reid donned the Adanac uniform he wore throughout his lacrosse career, until New Westminster selected him second overall in the 2014 WLA draft.  He says, “I couldn’t be happier to be back in Coquitlam and representing the Adanacs again.”  We couldn’t be happier to have him on board as well.  Born in Victoria, Reid was raised in Coquitlam and Port Moody and started playing lacrosse at age 4.  He says, “Friends of my parents influenced them to enroll my brother and I in lacrosse and Tor and I have been playing ever since.  I remember going to Adanacs games at the old Palace on Poirier when I was growing up and played all through minor, Intermediate A and Junior A in Coquitlam.  I also played Port Moody hockey so many of the guys I played hockey with in the winter I would suit up against in the summer when I played Coquitlam lacrosse.”  Reid was a member of the Team BC Bantam National Championship team and the Intermediate A provincial champions at age 17.  Strong, athletic and mobile with fine stick skills, as a Junior Adanac he played in the Minto Cup in 2012 and 2013 and scored 76 goals and 172 assists for a whopping 248 points in 65 games with 119 PiM; he was second in scoring in the Junior A circuit in 2012.  An injury kept him out of boxla in 2014 and part of the summer of 2015 in the WLA.  However, with a brace he was able to play field lacrosse for Limestone College (along with Adanac teammate Vinny Ricci) for the 2014 and 2015 NCAA Division 2 national champion Saints.  His career stats at Limestone included 54 goals and 62 assists for 116 points on 30% shooting.  He was a member if the All-Conference Academic Teams in 2013, 2014 and 2015.  In 2015, he was voted NCAA Lacrosse Team Captain for the 70-player squad; inducted into the Chi Alpha Sigma Honors Society; named an NCAA Today’s Top 10 nominee; named a USILA Scholar All-American and an Elite 89 Award Finalist; named Men’s Lacrosse Scholar Athlete of the Year and was the Paul Casey Award Winner for leadership, enthusiasm and unselfish service, all while completing a Business Economics Degree.  Whew!  He just completed his first year of studies in Law at Western University.  He helped the Mustangs win the Canadian University Field Lacrosse Association championship and then played twelve games for the Toronto Rock (while a law student!), scoring 16 goals and 36 assists with 6 PiM.  Reid also plays hockey and enjoys skiing (snow and water), boating, camping, listening to classic rock, watching TV (Game of Thrones, Silicon Valley and Brooklyn 99) and movies including The Avengers, Superbad, Troy and Freakonomics.  He and his lovely girlfriend Meghan, a legal assistant in Vancouver, have been dating for four years.  Reid says, “Meghan will be joining me in London this year to take the paralegal program at Fanshawe College.  Yes, we will be a legal power couple hahaha!”   Reid says that the most important influences so far in his lacrosse career have been his parents, Bob and Cari, his older brother Tor and coaches including J. B. Clarke at Limestone, Jim McIntosh, Steve Goodman and Neil Dinsdale.
