Why Ball State: I chose Ball State because having my family close for support was huge for me. With Ball State, the coaching staff and the team made it feel like home as soon as I stepped on campus for both camps I attended and school visits. I also chose BSU from an academic standpoint because it ranks among the best in the US for its teacher's college.
