What made you choose to come to LIU Post?
I originally went to Northeastern in Boston, MA but it just wasn’t a good fit for me academically or athletically so I looked to transfer and Post was close to home so it was a pretty easy choice.
What do you think the top priorities of a college athlete should be?
Academics should be an athlete’s top priority. Sometimes it is hard though especially for baseball because of the amount of games we play during the semester.

Hard working, Motivated, Family
What is your favorite part of being a student athlete at LIU Post?
My favorite part would have to be all the friendships and relationships that I’ve made with my teammates that will last a lifetime.

Winning the ECC Championship my sophomore year.
Who is your favorite athlete and why?
Henrik Lundqvist, greatest goaltender alive.
