Why did you choose St. Bonaventure? “Coach Mearns and Coach Connors truly did the right thing when recruiting. They made it feel like home; not to mention the academic class size. Small classes was the direction I wanted to go. Being a part of a new platform/program was also something that drew me in; they have the talent and the coaching staff and I wanted to be a part of that and contribute in any way I could! I can’t wait to be a part of the Bonnie Lacrosse family!”
Is there anything else you would like to share? “When Coach Tom Rooney came onto the scene at St. Dominic High School you just felt a different presence and you knew right away things were going to gel. Coach Rooney paved the way for our team to have the success its had thus far. I want to thank him for his support and believing in me on the field. I would like to thank St Bonaventure, Coach Mearns and Coach Connors for choosing me to be a part of their program. I am very excited and thankful for the opportunity all of the coaches have given me. When you have that fuel behind you, skies the limit! Last I want to thank my Mom, Dad and Sister for all of their love and support, nothing is more important and for that I am so grateful. “GO BAYHAWKS” and “GO BONNIES”
