What I like about UST: I like how UST attracts talented athletes who participate because of the their love for their sport and not for scholarship. I chose St. Thomas because of its opportunity to focus primarily on school, but at the same time also be a successful athlete.
Tell Us Something People Don't Know About You: I played sweeper for both my high school and traveling soccer teams.
