Why Ursinus? I enrolled at Ursinus because I saw myself improving my four years here. It fits my ideal college size; the academics are top-tier as well as the sports. I am going to get better on and off the field and that’s important to me. Another big part of why I decided to go to Ursinus is because of the coaches. Coach Endy and Coach Gallagher constantly checked up on me and constantly reached out to me and my parents. That definitely hit home and showed they wanted me here; I want to go somewhere I'm wanted and that’s at Ursinus College.
