Why Wisconsin?
“The school has incredible academic standards, which is very important to me. I felt like I could make UW Madison my home away from home, not only because of academics, the beautiful campus, and the outstanding athletic performances, but because I met the throws team and Coach Dave on my visit last year and they made me feel so comfortable and at home. I know I made the right choice because every day I get more excited to go to UW Madison in the fall.”
