Why Lehigh? “Lehigh was place I could see myself contributing on and off of the field, while being prepared for the real world through the academic rigors this University has to offer.”

As a junior (2018): Served as backup kicker and punter to senior Ed Mish… made only appearance in season-opener versus Saint Francis, averaging 57 yards on four kickoffs… named to Patriot League Academic Honor Roll.
