Monmouth University Athletics

Why Monmouth: "I chose Monmouth because of its great location; being located between New York City and Philadelphia opens a tremendous amount of job opportunities. For me it is also not far from home which helped my decision, being close meant my parents could still come to my games. The campus itself is beautiful and the class sizes are small, giving the opportunity to know your professors personally and get an excellent education. Monmouth provided a great opportunity to play Division I softball, for a great coaching staff, with teammates who become more like family then just teammates."
