On the few days that we have off during season I normally hangout with friends and catch up on homework and sleep.
How has participating in athletics at Millersville impacted you?
Athletics have always had a huge impact on my life. Being able to learn on and off the field at the collegiate level has been so fun. Lacrosse has made college a lot easier because I get to go through each day with my teammates.
What is a typical day for you when you are in-season?
In season a typical day is wake up at 8 a.m., eat breakfast, go to class, eat lunch, go to practice, go to lift, eat dinner, then finally get some homework done and hopefully get to bed at a reasonable time.
What is the best thing about being a student-athlete at Millersville?
The best part of being a student-athlete is the opportunity to play lacrosse at the collegiate level with my teammates.
If you could have dinner with anyone, dead or alive, who would it be?
If I could eat dinner with anyone it would be Brad Paisley. I really enjoy his music and feel like he would be an interesting person to have a conversation with.

Our go-to karaoke songs are 'American Pie" or "Chicken Fried."
