What song always ends up on your pregame playlist?

“Even Flow” by Pearl Jam.

If you were allowed to wear one completely non-athletic item during an actual game, what are you wearing?

I would definitely wear a cape, but it has to have our bulldog on it!

If you weren’t playing field hockey, what sport would you play?

Golf or lacrosse.

If you had to write a college essay on something totally unrelated to sports or academics, what niche topic are you writing 1000 words on?

I’m writing about the impact of Five Nights at Freddy’s had on YouTube and the gaming world.

What’s a piece of advice you’d give your younger self?

Let yourself loose! Have fun with making mistakes learning. We are meant to mess up and get in slumps, but it is so important when it comes to reacting and acting on fixing those mistakes and getting out of those slumps.
