What college did you attend? I attended Concordia University of Wisconsin, which plays at the NCAA division 3 level.   Through high school and into college my personal achievements were very minimal but I was fortunate to compete as a starter and role player for successful teams  at the state , regional and national levels.

 

What is your favorite memory as a player? Throughout college we earned one bid to the NCAA tournament and earned a couple conference championships. I also think back about some great victories over nationally recognized programs like UW-Oshkosh and Dominican University. However, in all honestly I loved training and being out there with teammates.

The trainings sessions are purpose driven, competitive and energetic.
