Loras College Athletics

Why Loras: "I was looking to play college soccer somewhere at a small school close to home with a good education. It just so happened that everything worked out and I'm playing for the best school in the country."

What it means to be a Duhawk: "It means you're a family. Everyone at Loras becomes your family, especially your teammates. Playing for the Duhawks is a decision I'd never change."

Favorite memory at Loras: "My favorite memory from Loras so far has been traveling to San Antonio, Texas for the NCAA Final Four. It was already an incredible season, but to finish it off in San Antonio with your brothers was truly something special."
