Why Yale? “Many told me `when you step on the campus, you will just know.’ For me Yale is the perfect blend of exceptional academics and Division I athletics with an open curriculum to allow me to pursue the unimaginable. However, it’s the warm hospitality and sense of family emanated by the team and coaches that confirmed my heart belonged to Yale.”
