“Why CMU?”: “I chose to attend Central Michigan University because of the coaching staff and atmosphere from the first greeting. Each coach has made a point to have a relationship with me and I truly appreciated that through my recruiting process. All my visits gave me a sense of comfortability and direction. The strategic way the coaches are building the program, always ensuring that there is a family and everyone fits in the puzzle. I trust they will build me to be a better player and person on and off the court. Overall, the coaches along with the other players, the culture, and the style of play made my choice so much easier.”
