What will you major in/study? Criminology

Why did you choose Eastern? “Coach (Kevin) Wallace has an enthusiasm that made me want to be a part of his lacrosse program and the University. I am majoring in Criminology and Eastern has a great program for my major. I know that I will have a great academic and lacrosse experience at Eastern University.”

Outlook for 2015 HS season? “Even though we lost many quality players this past season, I still have high hopes for the spring season. We have a strong core of players returning and young talent coming up. We intend to have another successful season.”

Thank You: “I have been coached by some great people. Coach Adam Mueller & my dad taught me how to play lacrosse since I was 6. Coaches Ebe Helm & Christmas from Duke’s LC have been awesome!
