WHY PENN STATE
"I chose Penn State because of the challenging yet supportive environment that it will provide me, both on the field and in the classroom. I know this program will push me to expand my boundaries as a student and athlete, where I will be able to achieve my athletic and academic goals. The school's atmosphere coupled with the competitive soccer opportunity, made Penn State an undeniable decision."
