Why did you choose McGill? “I chose to attend McGill for many different reasons. First of all, studying at McGill will give me the opportunity to learn from and beside some of the most intelligent people in the world. Location was also a major factor in my decision, I could not be more excited to attend university in the city of Montreal. Lastly, I decided to attend McGill because of the coaching staff. Coach (Tim) Murdoch genuinely cares about his players on and off the field and within the realm of college lacrosse, that can be hard to find.”
