What will you major in/study? Business
Why did you choose school? “I chose BU because I wanted a school with strong academics and athletics. I wanted the opportunity to play for Coach (Ryan) Polley and his staff. I also think Boston is a great town.”
Thoughts on your HS team’s season? “We are looking to win a District title this season and make a run in the State Playoffs.”
Thank You: “I would like to thank my family for all of their support and help along the way. I wouldn’t be where I am today without them. I would also like to thank Coach Ken Miller of the Long Island Sting for his guidance and support throughout the recruiting process. Coach Miller was instrumental in helping me make the most of my opportunities. I’d like to thank my high school coaches, Bill Hughes and Joe Bialek who were always there to support me. I am very fortunate to have met Jake Plunket who taught me a lot about the game of lacrosse. I would also like to thank my high school football coaches for making me into the disciplined person that I am today. They taught me the value of hard work year round which I will carry with me in the future.”
Other schools considered: Lafayette, Colgate, Franklin & Marshall
