Right now it's my top choice. Middlebury is considered a Division III Ivy League school and it's ranked eighth in the top 10 of liberal arts schools in the nation.

This has always been a dream of mine and this is as good as winning a state championship, but it would have been nice to win both.

I always put emphasis on being a scholar before an athlete. An injury can end a sports career on any play, but putting academics first is always a safe bet.

I loved it. I loved the school when I went there. I just knew Northwest would be the better choice in the long run.

It's an important part of the season. I don't want to say it's critical yet. If I have a choice — which I don't have — of when you want to lose three in a row, we're lucky it happened now and, hopefully, we can stop the bleeding.

When it came right down to it, I had to make a choice. This was the individual, it was the guy, right time, right place. It was the guy I wanted alongside of me to go forward.
