What was the highlight moment of your athletic career at Trinity and why?
One of my favorite moments as a Trinity athlete is when we went to the conference tournament my first year. I’m not sure why that stands out to me more than anything else, but I think it’s because we were so underestimated all season and weren’t even picked to make the tournament. We ended up losing to DePauw by a walk-off home run. But in that tournament we played in terrible conditions and just proved everyone wrong. It’s also fun to think about how we have been perceived in the conference the past three years after that year. We definitely aren’t taken lightly anymore.
What other organizations were you a part of at Trinity?
I was a part of the Trinitonian for a couple of years, as well as TigerTV for one year. I also joined ResLife for one year and have been pretty involved in the sport management department. I also held a couple of internships with local organizations during the past few years.
