Why did you choose Bryant? “I chose Bryant because I felt like I could get a great combination of athletics and academics. Coach (Casey) Brodersen and Coach (Mike) Pressler made me feel right at home the second I stepped on campus. Coach Pressler was very instrumental in my commitment because of his dedication to Bryant lacrosse. I felt like I could grow the most as a young man and as a lacrosse player under his and coach Brodersen’s guidance.”
Outlook for 2015 HS post-season? “I believe that we can make a deep run into the playoffs and possibly win a championship. It will take a lot of hard work but it is a very possible situation.”
