WHY DID YOU CHOSE KU?
"My high school coach, Matt Norton, who competed in track and cross country for KU, introduced me to the university when he took our team to the Rim Rock Classic High School Meet. Shortly after, I received a call from Coach Whitt, and we immediately clicked. That led me to take an official visit to Kansas, where the campus felt like home, and the team was full of amazing people. I had such a great experience on the visit that I committed almost immediately afterward."
