What do you enjoy about playing for Brophy Lacrosse?
“I love the brotherhood. These are people you will have in your life and people you can rely on. I have made my closest friends playing lacrosse. It means a lot to me.”
 
What have the two state championships meant to you?
“It is a testament to the work we have put in. We came short our freshman year. Building off the seniors and past programs, it was nice to get that break through finally. To continue last year, hopefully, we can continue this year.”
 
It has been an exciting week for the program to get a regional ranking and Player of the Week. What does it mean to you and the program to get the recognition?
“Again, it is a testament to our work. We have a hard-working team and skilled players, but you must put time and effort into getting extra reps. It is great to get some recognition. We have some tough opponents coming up.”
 
Why did you choose Layafette?
“I visited in early November, and they were super welcoming. They wanted to converse with me; it is a great academic school. It can set up my future tremendously. I met with Coach Pat Myers, who told me they wanted me. It felt great to be appreciated and wanted. I have the best connection and feel the most at home there.”
 
What are you looking forward to about the Nike Jesuit Classic?
“Out-of-state competition is always going to be a challenging game. All the teams have great players. It will be a test to see how good we are. We need to play our game.”
