Senior Year - College Visit - Notre Dame

Hey Guys,

I can’t believe senior year is here already. We are all really pumped – but we also all have a lot of big decisions to make within the next few months – like COLLEGE.
It’s a lot to think about – very exciting about where we will all end up.
This past weekend I had the most amazing college visit – South Bend, IN – University of Notre Dame. GO IRISH !

If you’ve been reading my blogs – you know I am a runner, cross county and track and I’ve always wanted to go to a big time school. Being an ND fan most of my life I couldn’t believe it when the ND track coach called me over the summer to say he wanted me to come out and check out the school.

They flew me out (with my dad) and had an amazing 2 days there. ND has a great engineering program which I want to study- along with a tremendous athletic program.
We met with the coaching staff, Athletic Director, engineering professors and academic advisors. I got to stay on campus with guys from the ND cross country team- attend classes, eat in the dining hall – be on the sidelines for the start of ND-Michigan State- sit in the student section and cheer on the football team. ND has so much history and the traditions there are great. The campus is amazing and everyone was so friendly. To me it’s the perfect school.

But I have others to visit to see which one is the best school for me. I can’t imagine anything being better than this past weekend in South Bend.
You never know though – I know I’m pretty lucky to have some good options.
I let you know how my college search goes. I have a feeling it’s going to be crazy senior year.

Welcome Back

Hello readers,

Hope you had a great summer and are getting back in the swing of things. My summer flew by in an instant and I can not believe I am starting my senior year. It feels like just yesterday I was entering UC for the first time. I hope you are doing well in whatever school you are attending and remember that school can produce the most important and even fun times in your lives. This week we had our first Cross Country race at Waranaco Park and it went very well. Our team is excited about the season and we should be a good team that will see a lot of success. I will try and update the blog weekly about what goes on during my fun, but important senior year. Hope all is well and for everyone entering a new school, just remember to be yourself and try and have a good time.
