What led you to attend and play lacrosse at W&L?
- I always knew that I wanted to go to a division III school with great academics to play a sport at the collegiate level. And one of my coaches from high school, Ginny (a 2000 graduate), played both soccer and lacrosse for W&L and always spoke so highly of the school.

So far, what’s been the best part of being a Generals lacrosse player?
-Getting to know all of the girls on the team has been great. I really enjoy being a part of such a great program. Honestly, I don’t know what I would do with all my time! I’ve always played sports and had to balance academics and practices, I think I would be bored and I certainly wouldn’t be having as much fun!

What has the best food been so far at the elaborate post-game tailgates?
-All of the fresh fruit (especially the berries), and the brie, and pretty much all of the desserts! We never get that stuff in d-hall!
