What will you major in/study? Engineering or Business
Why did you choose Rutgers? “First and foremost academics was a huge part of my decision and Rutgers has a very good engineering program and that is what I want to study.
“Also I chose Rutgers because throughout the whole recruiting process, Coach (Brian) Brecht showed the most interest and and was the most persistent. When I first met coach I though he was a great guy and thought I would enjoy him as a coach.
“Also I was looking for a big state school with a football team that would have a fun atmosphere and Rutgers was a perfect fit. I knew as soon as I got on campus, I felt comfortable and and felt like it was the right place for me.”
Outlook for 2015 season? “After the success we had last year in winning our first county tournament, we only graduated 4 seniors. This season we are returning many players and we are hoping to build off of last year and continue to grow as a program. Our coach has pointed us in the direction of success and we are excited to work hard for this upcoming season.”
Thank You: “Id like to thank my coaches for guiding me throughout my high school career and supporting me through the whole process.
“I would also like to thank my parents for putting in the hours to drive me to practice and support my decision. My dad has been my biggest supporter through all of this and I want to give him thanks for everything he has done for me.”
