Why did you choose Manhattan? “I chose Manhattan University because, overall, it was such a great fit for me. The campus is beautiful, in a perfect location, a good mixture of the neighborhood of Riverdale, a 35-minute subway ride to Times Square, and only 1 hour and 40 minutes from home. The coaches are amazing, very welcoming to my family and me on phone calls and in person for my visit. I really look forward to working with the coaches! I was lucky enough to meet a couple of players on my visit, and all greeted and welcomed me right away into their tight-knit community. Manhattan University was filled with such friendly people just walking on campus, professors, coaches, and teammates. Manhattan is very well known for its engineering program, which I want to pursue. They just got a new building for engineering! The MAAC is such a great conference to be a part of and I am so excited and looking forward to my upcoming years at Manhattan University!”
Thank Yous: “I would like to thank my family for always being by my side and forever being my biggest supporters. A huge thank you to my coaches and my teammates who made me into the player I am today and for pushing me to be the best version of myself. And a special thank you to the Manhattan Coaching staff for this amazing opportunity!”
