Why did you choose Harvard? “I chose Harvard for its superior athletics and academics. To be able to play for a great lacrosse team while receiving one of the best educations in the world is a dream come true.”
HS team’s outlook for 2017: “The sky is the limit for Rustin lacrosse in 2017. Forest Rosser, Callum MacKenzie, and Andrew Lamberjack are our key returning players in the senior class, and they are ready to do big things this year. Coach Philibin will be in his second year as our head coach and he will push us to be a top contender in the Ches-Mont. We’re a close-knit group of hardworking guys who are looking forward to getting after it this spring.”
Thank You: “I want to thank my parents, coaches, and teammates for supporting me through the good and bad and for always pushing me to better myself. I want to give my biggest thank you to Jim Schorn (Man-Up). Coach Schorn has been a great mentor to me, and has helped me with everything you can imagine. Whether it’s the recruiting process, finding a job, or looking for someone to shoot on me, he has always been there to help. I am the person I am today because of his help and guidance, and I cannot put into words how truly thankful I am for that.”
