My family and I are looking forward to this opportunity. We are so grateful to have been welcomed and are thrilled to be a part of the Mean Green family. I would like to thank coach Grant McCasland, and the men’s staff for welcoming me with open arms, as well as the rest of the athletic administration. Lastly, I greatly appreciate everyone who has helped me throughout my journey. I’ve been able to grow throughout my career, because of coaches like Nelson Haggerty and others. My thoughts and prayers continue to go out to coach Haggerty’s family and loved ones. I am eager to work with this team and help build in the success of the program.”
