Personal

Why did you choose UW Eau-Claire?

"I choose Eau Claire because it is close to home and it is a city full of art. I really like the team atmosphere and size here. I love how the team makes practice fun and still can get serious when it needs to, all while still keeping it fun. I also really like the style of coaching and how we are here to do well but Dan wants us to enjoy our time and priorities keeping us healthy. Also seeing a high school teammate's success was an important factor to me. I can still be a dedicated athlete but make sure my mental health and physical health come first. The goal is to get better as you go and being Division III there is less pressure and for me personally this way feels the healthiest for mental health."

Why do you choose to play Division III?

"Everyone here, chose to be here and that is really cool to see, how many just want to be apart of the team and there is not an outside influence."

What's the best sports movie/show/series?
