Chandler High School (AZ) 2015 goalie Tony Waltenburg has made a commitment to play Division III lacrosse at Benedictine University.
Tony Waltenburg ledger:

Graduation Year: 2015
Position: Goalie
College Choice: Benedictine University (ConnectLAX college profile)
Club Affiliation: Brady’s Bunch
Lacrosse Honors: 2013 Adrenaline High Rollers All-Star, 2013 Adrenaline Showcase, 2012 Sonoma Shootout All-Star

What will you major in/study? International Business or Marketing
Why did you choose Benedictine? “I chose BenU because I loved the smaller campus and the location of the school. I wanted to be close to a big city and the fact that the school is only 20 minutes outside of Chicago was a huge factor in my decision. I also loved the facilities and the updated buildings on campus and I was extremely impressed with how Coach (Jason) Farrell runs his program.”
Thoughts on last season/outlook for next season? “Our team had a tough season last year, but we are returning a lot of our starters on offense and we are hoping to make a statement for ourselves against powerhouses around Arizona.”
Thank You: “First I would like to thank my parents for always supporting me through my whole lacrosse career and never giving up on me when times got tough. I would also like to thank the Brady’s Bunch organization and Mike Wein for giving me a different outlook on life and allowing me to find my passion for the game.”
Other schools considered: Aurora University, Elmhurst College, Colorado Mesa University, Carthage College
