Why did you choose UW-Eau Claire?

"With it being a new program there was a good chance I'd be able to play a key role as soon as I stepped on campus as a freshman, which is very rare at more developed programs."

Why did you choose Division III?

"I truly play for the love of the game. Baseball has been a part of my life since I was 4 years old and I want to continue playing for as long as I can."

Who is your role model/mentor? Why are they important to you?

"My dad. He's been my coach since I was a kid and has always used baseball as a way to teach me important life lessons about accountability and working hard."

What is the best sports movie/show/series?

"Bull Durham."
