Why did you want to become part of the Lindenwood Football Alumni Association?
I wanted to be part of the Lindenwood football alumni association because I understand first hand the struggles of being a college athlete with little to no resources. I wanted to be able to help the athelets focus on school and football and not about their next meal or if they will have basic necessities such as toilet paper, or tooth paste. The alumni association I believe can be a great resources to help all football players excel on and off the field.
