Why did you choose Lehigh? “Lehigh has everything I want, both academically and athletically. The coaching staff and team were all extremely welcoming, and as soon as I got to campus I knew the school was a perfect fit for me!”

HS team’s outlook for 2017 season? “Although we lost a lot of extremely talented seniors last year, we have a lot of players that will definitely step up this year. I think as a team we all have the same goal of making it far in playoffs and hopefully winning WPIAlS. I definitely think we have the talent and ability to reach these goals and I’m excited for the spring season!”

Thank You: “I’d like to thank my high school coaches, Katie Lundberg, Jen McCrady, and Abby Dorrance for shaping me into the player I am today, and my club coaches, Katy Phillips and Katrina Silva for helping me with the whole recruiting process. I’d also like to thank my parents for driving me to countless practices and tournaments and always supporting me. I’d especially like to thank Coach Redfern, Coach McHugh, and Coach Cermack for giving me this opportunity to play for such a successful program.”

Other schools considered: Cornell, Villanova, Temple, Colgate
