WHY LINFIELD? I chose to attend Linfield because it gave me the best chance to continue to play baseball and achieve my bachelor’s degree. I have family in McMinnville, so it gives me the chance to spend more time with them.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A STUDENT-ATHLETE AT LINFIELD? Being a student-athlete is a huge honor because you get to represent the school and the community both in academics and in sports.
HOW HAS PARTICIPATING IN SPORTS MADE YOU A BETTER PERSON? It’s allowed me to see that there are ups and downs in anything you do, whether it’s baseball or everyday life.
WHAT MAKES YOU INTERESTING AS A STUDENT-ATHLETE? I’m able to achieve the highest levels in my academics while having the time and focus to do the same outside of schoolwork.
