Why Wisconsin: When you’ve said Wisconsin you’ve said it all. From the moment I walked onto campus my freshman year of high school I knew Wisconsin is where I belong. The coaching staff, players, and everyone made me feel at home with their family environment. The mix of a world class education, prestigious athletics, and being a Badger for life is what makes Wisconsin so special.
