Why Lehigh? “I chose Lehigh University because it felt like the right place for me. Academically it is an elite university with a top-5 wrestling program. The desire and passion for excellence shared by the team was a major deciding factor on my decision. The other deciding factor for me was Coach Santoro.”
On Coach Santoro: “Coach Santoro is the most stand up person I have ever met. I have never met someone who nobody has a negative thing to say about them. Everybody knows how great of a 
coach he is by the results put out by his teams. What little people know about is who is as a person, he is as dedicated and invested into you as you are to him and the wrestling program.”
