Why did you choose Tampa? “I choose University of Tampa due its academics, campus, location and strong lacrosse program. In just a few years, Coach (Rory) Whipple has the Team as one of the top ranked D2 programs in the country. I am excited to play for Coach Whipple who is the winningest coach in D2 history. My HS teammate – Vaughn Butler (Defense) – will also be attending there so look forward to continuing to play with him in college.”
Outlook for this year’s HS Team: “Although we lost a few senior starters from last year’s team which won the Conference and reached the NJ Sectional Championship, we are returning many key players. Seneca HS has 40 wins in past 2 seasons and we hope to continue this winning trend/tradition and compete, again, during playoffs, championship etc.”
