Why Lehigh? “I chose Lehigh because of its excellent engineering school, and its multitude of both social and academic opportunities. Had I gone to another school, I probably would not have been able to join Crew and become a member of such a close team.”

On the coaching staff: “All of the coaches have been doing an amazing job in guiding the team towards our goals, and are by far the best coaches I’ve had in any sport. I’ve heard stories from some of the more experienced members of the team, and the impression I get is that we are lucky to have such an incredible coaching staff.”
