What will you major in/study? Criminal Justice
Why did you choose GMU? “I was looking for a small school with a good criminal justice program and a school where I could see my self for the next four years.”
HS team’s outlook for 2017 season? “We have a lot to build off of last season. We lost some guys but we also have a few young players that will make impacts this year.
