WHY LEHIGH? “I chose Lehigh because I loved the vision that Coach Cassese had for this program. I knew he was someone that was dedicated to building a winning program and I wanted nothing more than to be a part of that family. I also chose Lehigh because of its high academic reputation and strong business school.”
