Reason you chose Saint Peter’s College:
SPC gave me the opportunity to play D1 softball. It is also located close to NYC, which is a completely different lifestyle than my hometown in FL. I thought coming to this school would give me the opportunity to experience new things and places, as well as mature and independently grow as a person.
Best part about being a Peacock:
Everyone here is so close. Many of the people, and most of the athletes are friends. The size of the school allows you to meet and know a lot of the people you are in school with.
Favorite thing to do on/around campus:
Hangout with friends
