Why did you choose Adelphi University, Women’s D2? “I loved the coaches and the campus. The lacrosse team is an incredible program and it is so exciting to look forward to being a part of a team that’s had so much success and won championships. It is close enough to home for my parents to come see me play yet I am able to be far enough away to get the college experience.”
Is there anything else you would like to share? “I want to thank all my coaches like Melissa Read, Jill Oak and Steve Levy for always pushing me and supporting me throughout this journey. I want to also thank Coach Chris Gill for his constant support and confidence on and off the field. And of course I wouldn’t be anywhere without my amazing family. Without all of these people standing by me, I would have never been the person or player I am today.”
