Why did you choose Lafayette? 
I chose Lafayette because of the balance between academics and athletics that is offered, as well as the close-knit environment within the team and the school altogether.

What is your favorite event in track? Why?
My favorite event is the 1600m because it’s a balance between speed and endurance, which makes it not too long or too short.
