WHAT ARE THE REASONS YOU CHOSE TO ATTEND LINFIELD?I chose to attend Linfield not only for their success on the football field, but also for their top tier education which will set me up for a very successful life beyond college. WHAT DOES BEING A STUDENT-ATHLETE AT LINFIELD MEAN TO YOU? Being a student-athlete means I get to not only show my commitment to my education and studies in the classroom, but also my commitment to the game that I love through hard work and effort. HOW HAS PARTICIPATING IN SPORTS MADE YOU A BETTER PERSON?
