Why did you choose this school?: The main reason I decided to attend Saint Francis is because of the respect I have for the coaching staff and the rest of the faculty at SFU. The admissions staff made me feel so welcome when I went on my visit and I was really able to picture myself on campus for the next four years. The coaches have both been so helpful and welcoming throughout this process and they went out of their way get to know me as a person as well as a player which means a lot to me. SFU also offers an amazing program for my major along with a competitive field hockey program! It is everything that I was looking for in a school and I am so excited!!

Lastly, I would like to thank the coaching staff at SFU for this amazing opportunity!
