WHY LEHIGH? “I chose Lehigh because it fit the criteria I was looking for in a school: top notch academics, basketball opportunity and a personality fit.”
ON COACH REED: “Coach Reed is a very cerebral coach. He knows the game of basketball from what I have seen. He appeared to respect me as more than just a basketball player. He made it feel like going to Lehigh was more about the student than the athlete."
