What will you major in/study? Undecided Business/Science
Why did you choose LaSalle? “I chose LaSalle University because right when I stepped on the campus for a clinic, I knew it was the one. I love the location of the school, the school size, the classes offered to me, the girls, and of course the coaches. Being able to play in the Atlantic 10 Conference under Coach Candace (Taglianetti Bossell) will be a true honor.”
Outlook for 2015 HS season? “Coming off losing quite a few senior starters and losing in the quarter-finals, we are hungry for a state championship. I think our team has the speed, heart, athleticism, and desire to get there. It is looking to be the best year yet for our program.”
Thank You: “Words cannot express how thankful I am for all the support I have been given during this recruiting process. I would like to first thank my parents for being the best support system anybody could ever ask for.
“I would like to thank all my coaches at XTEAM, especially LC and Crista, for always giving me the “hard truth” as well as the tools and confidence I needed throughout this process.
“Lastly, I would like to thank my friends/extended family members for cheering me on until I chose the right school.”
Other schools considered: UC Davis, University of Oregon, Iona
