Special Thanks
I am incredibly excited to announce my commitment to play lacrosse at Willamette University. I’m so blessed by all the support I’ve received from my family, friends, and teammates. I didn’t think I would’ve accomplished this goal when I tore my ACL a few months ago, but the care and guidance I have gotten played a massive role in making this possible. A huge thank you to my parents and sister, who never let me give up, driving me to practices and tournaments, and being my number one fan. A huge thank you Coach J and Jules and my coaches at Rize who made my team a home and family for me. I am incredibly excited and grateful for this amazing opportunity, and I can’t wait to be a bearcat. GO BEARCATS!
Reason for Choosing School
I chose the school because of the coach's approach to being a student-athlete and the philosophy of team environment. I knew that the school was highly academic, and I knew I could thrive academically and athletically. I liked how I would be playing at a very high level, but I know I will have academic support.
