Why did you choose Wagner College, Men’s D1? “I chose Wagner College because of its high academic standards, the sports administration program and the lacrosse coaches. Coach Billy (McCutcheon) and Coach Marc (Zolchonock) made a really hard decision very easy for me and they are building something special there. My coach, Bryan Armstrong, of Riot Lacrosse felt like it would be a great fit for me socially, academically and athletically. I also live in the area so I was very familiar with the school already. The best part is my family can watch all my games as we play in the NEC. I feel this would be a great place for me to grow as a student athlete and achieve my goals I set for myself.”
Is there anything else you would like to share? “I would like to thank Lee Southern, Bryan Armstrong and my NJ Riot coaches. In addition I would like to thank Dan Daponte, Rich Robinson and my coaches at SJR HS. Most importantly I would like to thank my family for always supporting me.”
