Who do you like to follow the most on Twitter, and why? I do not really have one favorite account, but my teammate Conor Murphy -- @MurphDogGuideDog -- always keeps me laughing. He is also in the process of writing a memoir soon to be published.
Three words or phrases my friends or teammates might use to describe me? Energetic, positive, hard-working.

What is your most memorable moment as a high school athlete? The 2011 state championship 5-4 overtime win over Hermantown my sophomore year.
How do you balance school and sports during the year? I just try to manage my time wisely. Sometimes I will not get home from practice until around 7, in which case I usually will eat a quick dinner and do my homework.
Who is your favorite college or pro sports team and why? I really like the Minnesota Wild right now with their new offseason additions.
