- Chose Illinois because of, "Opportunity to play for a coaching staff led by Dan Hartleb. The staff has extensive experience winning and developing players. Coach [Mark] Allen's background evaluating and developing pitchers and the connection built with Coach [Adam] Christ were big factors. World class facilities was also a big factor and the chance to play in the Big Ten was attractive. Illinois has a highly rated business school and a campus and spirit that I cannot wait to be part of. As well, my coach Chris Robinson is a former All American at Illinois and his advice played a big part."
- Plans on majoring in business.
