Why DU: “The campus is not only beautiful, but it is located in such a unique city. I love being able to enjoy all the outdoor opportunities of Denver, while also having such an ideal campus to be a student at. The triathlon team has great goals and coach Barbara really made an impression with her values and priorities for the team. After my visit, I just felt very excited to become a part of DU.”
Why Triathlon: “I love the challenge of training and mastering three different sports. With triathlon, every course and race is different, and there is always something that you can improve upon or learn from. I also really like the focus and discipline that triathlon requires.”
