Why did you choose Notre Dame, Women’s D1? “I chose the University of Notre Dame because of the incredible balance of strong academics and high-level lacrosse to the fun traditions and alumni network. Notre Dame has always been a dream school for me, and from the moment I first stepped on campus, I knew it was a special place. When I met the amazing coaching staff and team, I knew it was the right place. The team’s support and love for each other showed, and their commitment to play hard and learn every day made me intrigued. Also, having the opportunity to play in the ACC and possibly win the program’s first ACC title and get to a Final Four.”
Thank You: “I would like to thank my family for all their support and for providing me with the right resources and opportunities; my coaches: Colleen Magarity, Rachel Howard-Franklin, Erin Dunne, Amy Orcutt, Jaclyn Klunder, Elise Bendinelli, and Ben Steenrod, and especially Coaches Halfpenny, Benner, and Sear. I would not be who I am today without everyone who has guided me throughout the last years. I would also thank all the coaches who showed their interest and let me explore what they had to offer. This decision definitely was not easy, but could not be more grateful for what’s to come.”
