WHY LEHIGH? “When being recruited, I looked for a school that stressed academics and rich tradition in addition to a well-respected Division I sports program. Lehigh embodies all of this. I am able to focus on my studies more so than anything else while still balancing being an athlete. I'm completely confident that my experience here will prepare me for success in the rest of my life.”
ON COACH BLUE: “Coach Blue is the type of coach who makes us want to work hard no matter what. She has earned our utmost respect already because the overall mentality of our team has changed ever since she has arrived. Our respect for one another has risen because of Coach Blue's effect on us. I feel she can really help turn around our program.”
ON PLAYING FIELD HOCKEY AT LEHIGH: “Being part of LUFH is an amazing experience. I came into college with 20 sisters who I know are there for me no matter what. As a team, we go through a lot of ups and downs together, but it’s a comfort to know that no matter what, we are a unit.”

AS A FRESHMAN (2010): Strong rookie contributor, playing in all 16 games, including 14 starts … Second on the team with two defensive saves, which came at Fairfield (9/8) and vs. Monmouth (9/17).
