"I chose Butler because I felt it was the right fit for me. I didn't want to sacrifice academics in order to play soccer. With Butler, I get the best of both worlds. It has a great mix of fantastic academics and a top-notch soccer program. Coach Snape is a great coach that knows the game very well, and he is definitely a man I want to play for."
