Why did you choose this school?: I chose Temple because of it’s great academics, beautiful campus, and the amazing team culture. The temple field hockey program is the perfect fit for me. The coaches push the girls to always be their best and they are all about hard work, effort, and hustle. Temple gives me the best of both worlds on the field and in the class room. It’s just an added bonus to be in the city!!!!!

Who would you like to thank?: I want to thank my parents for their constant and unconditional love and support. They allowed me to take control over this process and let me choose what was best for me. They are there after the good and bad games, practices, and everything in between. Their support for me was never stopped for a second. They have driven me all over the North East from tournament to camp without complaint. They have been my biggest examples for what it means to work hard. I couldn’t do this without them.
