Why Lehigh? “I chose Lehigh because it’s a good school academically and it has a competitive Division I tennis program. Coach Shook was very helpful during my college search and he is also a large reason why I came to Lehigh. I also was looking for a school with a large Greek system so that I could join a fraternity if I want to.”
