Former Ohio State Buckeye Lacrosse Player, Justin Inacio joins Buckeye Focused to take on the growth and future of lacrosse, expectations in youth sports, training athletes, growing a brand as a student-athlete, the struggles of a collegiate athlete, and of course the football team that calls The Shoe home.

Justin Inacio was a 5-year starter, a 3-time all-American, and the holder of multiple records on the Ohio State men’s lacrosse team. Justin is currently playing professional lacrosse for the Premier Lacrosse League (PLL) and National Lacrosse League (NLL). He was also the founder of REPS, an app that connected lacrosse coaches with youth athletes for private and group lessons. REPS was acquired by Talent Share. Talent Share is a company founded by Marc Fleming with Justin now as a part-owner. Talent Share gives the opportunity to collegiate athletes to have a source of income while in college.
