WHY LEHIGH? “I chose Lehigh because I went to the soccer camp over the summer and fell in love with it. Its academics are a perfect match for me and I get to play soccer at the Division I level.”

ON COACH LAMBINUS: “He’s so nice and very focused on the team. When I first met him, he said his goal was to win the Patriot League and move onto the NCAA Tournament, and he did just that a few months later. He’s also very honest and very easy to communicate with.”
