WHY MINNESOTA
"I chose the University of Minnesota because on top of great academics and athletic success, the coaching staff and team are amazing! I went through the recruiting process during COVID-19, so I spent many nights on zoom calls and phone calls with the coaches and team. This really helped me to get to know them better and what their program valued. A few things that really stood out to me was how long the coaching staff has been together, how close the team was and how they really focus on preparing their student-athletes for life after college."
