Why UAlbany?
"I chose UAlbany because it offers great academic opportunities, as well as the strong and competitive soccer program that I know will challenge me and push me to become a better player and person.  When I first stepped on campus, I knew it was where I wanted to spend the next four years, and I can't wait to be a Great Dane."
