Why Lewis & Clark?: I love how Lewis & Clark gives me the opportunity to compete in the sport I love, but also allows me to receive an amazing education. I feel very confident that I will receive the best education I need to be successful the minute I step off campus. I also love the softball program. Coach Cyrus has built and is continuing to build, and I couldn’t wait to be a part of it. I truly believe Lewis & Clark is the place He has called me to be.
