What will you major in/study? Business
Why did you choose F&M? “Franklin and Marshall is a great school. The academics are strong. I liked that they had a business major which is not available at many liberal arts colleges.
“From a lacrosse standpoint I think the team and coaching staff are outstanding. F&M is a good fit for me with lacrosse. They have a top notch D3 program, and are aiming to compete at the highest level.”
Other schools considered: St. Mary’s, Ohio Wesleyan
Outlook for 2015 HS team? “We are returning most of our attack, middies and defense. We are looking to make a run at the League Championship and get the PAC 10 Championship back. We made some progress in Districts and we are looking to build on that and advance further.”
Thank You: “I would like to thank my club lacrosse coaches: Coach Hayes, Coach Deckelbaum, Coach Kupprion. I would like to give special thanks to Coach Deckelbaum for working with me and helping me become an all around better lacrosse player. I would also like to thank my high school coaches: Coach Neese and Coach Carville and my parents Janet and John Garges for their help and support.”
