Why did you choose Lafayette?
I chose Lafayette because it's in an area a lot of my family lives. Living near home was a key factor in my decision. I also picked Lafayette because they have prestigious academics and a vast alumni network. 

What is your favorite event in track? Why?
My favorite track event is the 1600/mile because it’s the perfect blend between having speed but also having some endurance. It also makes for the most exciting races because 800 runners can move up in distance and 3200/5k guys can drop down.
