Why Lehigh? “I chose to attend Lehigh because the minute I stepped on campus I fell in love with the school. I love that it is an academically challenging school and has an infamous softball program.”

On Coach Troyan: “Coach is funny and has ways to make even the most tedious workouts fun.”

On Lehigh softball experience: “The Lehigh softball experience means more than anything I could ask for. I have already gotten more out of the program and especially the girls than I could have ever imagined. I have grown so close to the people I call teammates and sisters even. I have created bonds and relationships that will last a lifetime.”
