I chose Alfred because it was one of the most welcoming environments I have ever experienced.
From the coaching staff to the players and students, I felt sense of belonging.
It has some of the nicest athletic facilities and support for the athletes, the campus and surrounding town was beautiful, and I had a great time touring the art department- which stood out from other schools art departments by actually catering to the arts.
Above everything else the community valued softball.
Overall Alfred has everything I could want for furthering my academic and athletic career.
