What will you major in/study? Psychology
Why did you choose Army? “The opportunity to go to a service academy like West Point was one I just couldn’t pass up. The academics are unbelievably great and it is a school that will allow me to commission into the Army after graduation to serve our country. I had a great experience with Coach (Kristen) Waagbo and Coach Bria (Irizarry) at camp and can’t wait to play for them in the future.”
Outlook for 2017 HS season? “I am super excited for our team to compete this upcoming season. We have a great group of girls and are looking to advance further in the state tournament.”
Thank You: “I would love to thank my parents for allowing me to do what I love and constantly being there for me. Without them and their support, I would have never had this opportunity to play lacrosse at the collegiate level. I’d also like to thank all of my high school and club coaches for helping me with the recruiting process and spending time over the years to help me develop my skills. I definitely owe all of my teammates a huge thank you for constantly pushing me to be better and always being there for me. Last but certainly not least, a big thank you to Coach Waags and Coach Bria for giving me the opportunity to play at my dream school, I can’t wait!”
Other schools considered: Mount Saint Mary’s
