AJ Lawhead has retired from paintball.

"This is a day I knew would inevitably come, but it's certainly not how I pictured it. I imagined looking back on a career full of tournament wins, series titles, and trophies stacked to the ceiling. Instead it's mostly mediocre finishes, team rebuilds, and a handful of times atop the podium.
Although my time with Chicago Aftershock has been tumultuous at times, this career has given me the opportunity to travel all over the country and meet so many people that I never would have otherwise.
It's been such an honor to wear Chicago Aftershock across my chest and compete against the best players in the world for nearly a decade now, but unfortunately the time has come for me to step away from the game and move onto a new chapter in life. Thank you to everyone that has supported me over the years. I wish the best of luck to everyone on Shock moving forward.
