Why I Chose CMU: “It’s close to home as well as beautiful with my favorite thing, mountains surrounding it. I also enjoyed the campus and thought everything was relatively close. The team atmosphere seemed super inviting and Coach Niksic was super easy to talk too and relate to which at the end of the day made me pick Mesa.”
