Why did you choose school? “I chose Ohio State because I loved the city environment that it brought: the strong lacrosse program; the great coaches and players and; most importantly, all the opportunities the school gives me with my academics. I love the idea of being a part of something so big, and I can’t wait to be apart of such a great team and family!”

Thoughts on your HS team’s 2016 season? “This year my team really wants to capitalize on team bonding. Last year we lost in overtime in the state championship. And I think it is important to come into the season being very family oriented, and to win a state championship.”
