What handle do you use?
I use an STX Alliance 135.
Where does your pocket sit/what type of pocket do you prefer?
My pocket sits in the mid/lower part of my head so I can feel the ball and pass it as quickly as I can.

Who is your stick doctor? Do you string it yourself or have a go-to-teammate/friend?
It used to be Cameron Lao-Gosney, but now it's one of our Canadian freshmen Dan Taylor. He likes his stick the same way I do.

What's the best part about playing lacrosse at Lehigh?
The best part about playing lacrosse at Lehigh is having the opportunity to play lacrosse with some great guys as well as being able to compete for championships every year.
What should we expect from Lehigh this year?
You should expect big things from our program this year. Our team has a majority of the starters and key players back from last year and all of us still have a bad taste in our mouths from the way last year ended. We also brought in a great recruiting class and we have many of them competing for time right now. I think we have all the pieces of the puzzle to make a run for the Patriot League Championship and even in the NCAAs.
