Why did you choose Moravian College?
I chose to come to Moravian College because of the size of the school, the distance it is from home, and the feeling of comfort and welcome when I stepped on the campus. I have always attended small schools, so the size of Moravian is a perfect fit for me. I also didn't want to be too close to home or too far. Moravian is an hour and a half away from my house so it is very easy to go home if I need to.

How has being an athlete helped you as a student and in the classroom?
Being an athlete has helped me as a student in a number of ways. The one major thing it has taught me is time management.

What is the hardest part of your sport?
For me, the hardest part of the sport is not being able to use my head while playing. I've had a few concussions and between myself, my parents, and the trainers we came to the conclusion that the best thing for my health would be to avoid heading the ball. It is frustrating that I cannot use my head, but I have taught myself to use my shoulder instead.

Another thing I would tell them is to know that your coaches are there to help you and if you have any problems athletically or academically they will do what they can to resolve any problems...don't be afraid to go to your coaches for help.
