Q & A WITH JULIA
When did you start playing lacrosse?
I started playing lacrosse in third grade. It was in middle school when I started to want to play college lacrosse.
What made you choose UNH?
A big reason I chose to come to UNH is because I wanted to go to a school closer to home. This has allowed my family to be able to come to almost every game of mine.
What does that family support mean to you?
That is one of the big reasons that I chose to go to school closer to home. Family support is really important to me, and I think it has helped me get this far in my lacrosse career.
What would you like to pursue after graduation?
