"I chose DelVal because I knew I could have more opportunities here. So far, I love DelVal, I have made so many friends that I know will last a lifetime, and I love my experiences so far on the wrestling and track team. Coaches have helped me by making the whole transfer process move smoothly, and have also helped me meet some of my teammates who have become my roommates."
