2022: Tied most minutes on the season for the Badgers, playing every minute. Scored two goals and provided one assist in his lone season with Wisconsin.
Prior to Wisconsin: A graduate transfer from St. John's University after earning a degree in sports management, with a minor in business, Chandler was part of the Big East Conference All-Academic Team from 2018 through 2021. He started 47 of the 52 games he played on the backline for the Red Storm, helping the program to the second round of the 2021 NCAA Tournament and the round of 16 during 2019. His sophomore season in 2019 included a Big East Defensive Player of the Week honor. That helped the team to nine shutouts and top-30 national ranking in goals-against average and shutout percentage.
Prior to college, Chandler was a three-year captain for Lawrence Park Collegiate Institute in Toronto where he was team MVP as a junior and helped the school to the 2016 league championship. They took second in 2017 and 2018.
Why Wisconsin?
"I chose to attend Wisconsin because they checked all the boxes off my list," said Chandler. "They play in a very competitive conference, it's a top academic school in the country and a I really wanted to be a part of the project the coaching staff recently started.
"Wisconsin has all the resources a student-athlete needs to be successful."
