Why Lehigh?:” Lehigh offers the perfect combination of academic rigor and athletic opportunities. After learning that Lehigh’s business program is among the top in the nation, I was excited to hear that the softball team is just as impressive. After my visit, I was sure that Lehigh was the place for me. The campus is beautiful and everyone is incredibly friendly and accommodating. Lehigh truly fosters a family oriented atmosphere and the team that Coach Troyan has built is no exception.”

On the Lehigh softball experience: “On the field, we are a competitive team with a commitment to excellence. At practice, there is never a dull moment and we always find ourselves bursting into laughter. Camaraderie and being a good teammate is engrained into the Lehigh softball tradition and it is something we take very seriously. It is so rare to be on a team with girls that you respect and admire both as athletes and as people and that is part of what makes our team so unique.”
