Why Lehigh? “I chose Lehigh because it has a great environment, with a beautiful campus and a good reputation for academics and athletics.”

On Coach Troyan: “Coach Troyan is a very friendly man, who is always trying to help you with whatever you need (softball or not). He has a sense of humor and knows a lot about the game.”

On the Lehigh softball experience: “Lehigh softball is a program that probably has the closest group of girls that a program can have, as well as a ton of talent when on the field. Everyone on the team cares for and treats each other like their own family. The team is a hardworking and competitive group who like to have fun at the same time, and making themselves a better person in the end.”
