FEATURE STORY: Cameron and Roman Lao-Gosney: In it together

WHY LEHIGH?
“I chose Lehigh because of its strong, positive atmosphere. Lehigh not only has great athletics combined with intense academics, but it also has a gorgeous campus where I can see myself succeeding.”

ON COACH CASSESE: “My coach is one of the biggest, if not the biggest reasons why I came to Lehigh. He wants his players to want to be there, which is why he didn’t give me a time limit on when he needed me to commit. He’s easy to talk to and has a humble persona, but you can tell he is determined to succeed and bring his team to new heights.”
