WHY LEHIGH?
The atmosphere around campus was very nice and inviting and it felt like the best fit for me. I believed that the academic standard here would challenge me and give me the tools to become the best student and person that I could be. Also, the athletic facilities were top notch, and the mindset of the players and coaches were exactly what I was looking for.
Â
ON COACH KOSKI
He was the first college coach that I met with that took time out of his busy schedule to personally drive and show me around campus. He got to know me as a person on and off the field the second I met him, and it left a huge and positive impression on my family and I. He made my decision to come to Lehigh very easy.
