Why did you choose school? “I decided I wanted to attend Gettysburg College because of the tradition the school has on and off the lacrosse field. Gettysburg has the student to teacher ratio, economics program, and facilities that will help me be successful. I’m looking forward to the opportunity to play great lacrosse, and at the same time, getting a degree from one of the finest schools in the country.”

Other comments: “I have to thank my parents for always supporting me. You guys were always there to bounce questions off of, and help me make the best decision.

“I would like to thank the Low and Away staff as a whole for helping me throughout the summer to get exposure. I couldn’t have asked for better coaches on and off the field. You guys have developed my play tremendously, and were always talking to coaches about me.”
