Why Brown?"I chose Brown because it was not like any other school. Its top academic level and competitive lacrosse program definitely affected my decision. What I thought was really special about Brown's community was that everyone that I talked to were extremely friendly and down to earth. The people were so normal and at the same time held some type of incredible talent. This along with the coaching staff closed the book with my decision. I know that I can trust my lacrosse career playing under Coach Tiffany. He's a man whom I respect a great deal and got to know over my high school career."
