Why Ursinus? I chose Ursinus because I would be able to compete at a high level academically and also athletically. The rigorous academics allow me to be able to achieve all my goals. I love how small the school is, and it is a great distance from home. I met Coach Benner through my academy program at Spooky Nook, and she is the reason I looked at Ursinus.
