What will you major in/study? Biology

Why did you choose Coastal Carolina? “I picked Coastal Carolina because when I stepped on the campus I knew that’s where I wanted to be. They have an amazing biology program but also they have an amazing team lead by coaches who want to win.”

HS team’s outlook for 2017: “This high school season is going to be the best one yet. I have the best group of defenders who got my back. Plus lead by an amazing 3 mid fielders Kate Daly, Brooke Babbitt and Carrie Halpin. They all know how to move the ball and create space for driving lanes. But the best part of the team is our defense lead by Kelly Waters, Hannah Fisher, Emma Lagno and Erin Fox. The way they stop the ball in transition is incredible.”

Thank You: “I can’t say thank you enough to Mary Schwartz and Lisa Mitchelides for bringing me in on their team and really making me strive for the best. Also, a huge thank you too my high school lacrosse coach Jillian Barnes for the best lacrosse seasons I could have asked for.”
