Career Stats:

What is your favorite sports memory at Albright?
“My favorite sports memory is during my junior year when we played against Colorado College, who was nationally ranked at the time. Even though we only lost by two goals, it was still a fun experience to be able to compete against a team that is nationally ranked.”

What are your post-graduate plans?
“After graduation I plan on getting a job as caseworker. I am also thinking about working towards getting a masters so I can become an Applied Behavior Analysis to help children who have behavioral problems, Autism and other disorders.”

What is one thing that you would like to say to current Albright baseball underclassmen/future Albright baseball student-athletes?
“To my current teammates: enjoy it while it lasts, it goes by way too fast. Don’t take anything for granted and always push each other to become better lacrosse players!!  To future members: you’ve chosen the best team, this team is the definition of a family and they will always be there for you no matter what!”

Why did you chose Albright/Favorite part about Albright?
“My favorite memory at Albright was the experience of being a student- athlete. It made my college experience more fun because I got to part of a team with a group of girls that I can always be able to count on to be there for me. This whole experience has made me make lifetime memories and friends that I’ll cherish for a long time!”

I wanted to thank you again for the opportunity you have created for our kids.  This experience is more than the TV show.  Eight students who probably never would have talked to each other were excited to execute a plan. Know that you make a difference.
