Offensive Lineman for Lafayette Leopards. Completing Freshman year as both a D1 athlete and an Integrative Engineering Major has been challenging. There is not a lot of time for other hobbies or interests as you are living, breathing and eating your sport and when you are not engaged in football activities, you are studying for your classes. I have always been a good student, getting mostly A's and always on the Dean's list. This first year in college has humbled me both athletically and academically as I am surrounded by people who worked just as hard through high school to be accepted to a prestigious and highly competitive college while also excelling in their sport to be considered at a D1 level. I do not take for granted that only about 2% of high school players go on to play at the college level and I am here to make the most of this opportunity.
