Why Ursinus: I chose Ursinus because it allowed me to play two sports. The experience has been like no other. Additionally, Ursinus is a renowned school academically, and is well known throughout the tri-state area. That also played a key role in my commitment to  this school. I think It’s easy to get lost at a big school, and I’m happy that this small community has given me the ability to create relationships with people that will last a lifetime.
