Fatherhood, popcorn addictions and Hossack vs. zombies with U.S. legend Tom Schreiber — aka Captain America.

What’s it like being a dad? Any lacrosse yet?

It’s been amazing. Nothing formal just yet, but they both have sticks that they carry around the house, among other things.

How has fatherhood changed the way you approach life and lacrosse?

It changes every aspect of life for the better. It makes you appreciate things more. It shifts perspective and your incentives. What used to be just me playing for fun has shifted into me wanting to show them the way.

If you could see one movie again for the first time, what would it be?

I saw “Remember the Titans” with my peewee team the night before our championship, and I remember it like it was yesterday. We got it done, which was even better.

What are your go-to movie theater snacks?

Popcorn. When I’m around it, I can’t put it down.

Which three Archers teammates would you want with you in a zombie apocalypse?

Graeme Hossack, without a doubt. If I could bring three Graemes, we’d be in good shape.

How do you take your coffee?

Black coffee, a couple cups a day. I’ve got a little hipster in me, and I love the independent spots.

What is your biggest pet peeve?

We travel a lot, being a lacrosse player. When people don’t put their bins away through security, that bugs me.

If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go?

Japan has been something that people have really enjoyed both culturally and from the lacrosse standpoint, so hopefully someday I have an opportunity to go there.

If you could have one superpower, what would it be?
