Prior to the season being interrupted, how was the year going - what was the team's expectations and goals?

This season was just starting to get good for us, we were starting to play better and better as a team and I was excited to see what was about to come next for us once we got home from spring training. I expected big things out of the team as a whole and individuals on the team this season.

What are your personal career goals? Jobs, internships, interests moving forward?

I plan to job search and in the future I also plan on going back to school to achieve a higher degree.  

Do you have any advice for your younger teammates or recruits that are looking at coming to Bethany?

My advice would be to just have fun and believe in yourself no matter what the occasion might be. Give your all 100% of time because it will be gone before you know it.

What has it meant to you being a Bison?

To me being a bison has meant having a home away from home. Having the opportunity to be a part of ongoing traditions and making memories.

Who has supported you during your time as a student-athlete?

During my time at Bethany my supporters have been my family, friends, teammates, and coaches.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic caused the 2020 spring sports to be cancelled. Bethany College wants to thank all of our seniors for representing the Bison in a positive manner and for all their hard work and dedication over their careers at Bethany.
