Bio
WHY LEHIGH? “When I visited, I liked how the students I met were serious about academics, but were also very involved on campus. I also really wanted to go to a school with a strong engineering program and academic reputation.”
ON COACH CONLEY: “Coach Conley really knows how to push us to our limits and beyond what we could ever imagine ourselves doing and he has the best dog, Titan.”
AS A SOPHOMORE (2014-15): Broke 24:00 for her 6K ... PR'd on her 2K.
AS A FRESHMAN (2013-14): Stroked the varsity four at the Patriot League Championships (5/16) which advanced to the grand finals. Had a time of 9:41.45 in the semifinals and 9:19.95 in the finals … Member of the Novice Four that defeated Lafayette in the River Cup (4/5). Finished in 7:19.00, more than 24 seconds ahead of the Leopards …
BEFORE LEHIGH: Was a standout golf student-athlete at Ridgewood High School … Team captain as a senior … Two-time first team All-Suburban and two-time first team All-Division … Second team All-County as a senior … Was the sixth-place individual in the county tournament as a senior … Led team to Big North Division I title two years in a row … Strong in the classroom, earning high honors for all three years … Member of student government.
