“Thanks to my brother, Joe, for handing me my first lacrosse stick and being the role model I look up to, and my parents for their constant support and love and for driving me to all my games and practices. Thanks to Jennifer Walther, Terry Dzelgalvis and Erin Jones, my Lower Bucks Lacrosse coaches, who inspired my love for the game and taught me what it means to be a part of a team.
