Gettysburg College, Lacrosse

Q: What made you choose the college that you’re attending?

“Well, it’s a bunch of factors going through the recruiting process. I’m looking at schools that both are an academic fit and an athletic fit and Gettysburg was both.”

Q: What’s been one of the most memorable parts of your high school athletics career?

“I definitely think just all the practices. Just going out because we practice late we practice from seven o’clock to nine o’clock at night, just going out at night having fun when there’s nothing else going on. It’s probably the most memorable part all the team bonding like team breakfast, team dinner is pretty fun.”

Q:  What are you looking forward to most in college athletics?

“I really think competing. Gettysburg has a good lacrosse team and I just want to be part of like a winning program. And I think it would be super fun to go far and the regular season and the playoffs.”

Q: What advice do you have for underclassmen who might be considering playing college sports?

“I guess just work hard. I think like no matter where you play, what you’re playing, it’s an accomplishment to play in college. And cherish that and like, it’s all in your hands to get there. It just takes hard work and dedication.”

Q: Anyone you’d like to shout-out or thank?

“Probably Tate Gorman. In fourth grade he got me into lacrosse and now once I started playing, I haven’t looked back since. Thank you.”
