Auggie Athlete FAQ:
Career Goal? To become a physical therapist so I can help people overcome physical challenges and recover from injuries.
Why did I choose to attend Augsburg? I knew I wanted to play for a Division III school and Augsburg is a great fit for my values and for the opportunities both in hockey and academics.
Athletic Goal at Augsburg? My athletic goal at Augsburg is to work hard towards becoming the starting goalie, be recognized as a top goaltender in the MIAC and to win a National Championship.
Biggest Thrill in Athletics? The biggest thrill in athletics is winning big games. I enjoy winning as a team while having personal success and contributing to the team's success.
What differentiates you from teammates or other students? I have a ton of passion for the game of hockey and especially for stopping pucks. My parents used to joke that I would sleep at the arena if I could. I love everything about being a goalie - practices, games, the gear, the team - and I never tire of it. I am grateful every day for hockey being a part of my life.
What is a little known fact about yourself? I first found the love of the game by purchasing some used goalie pads at a garage sale when I was very young....I wore them nearly every day and begged my brother to "shoot on me" every day until the pads fell apart.
List any interesting, non-athletic hobbies, talents or unusual facts about yourself? I enjoy fishing and hunting and I taught myself how to juggle (to improve my goalie hand/eye coordination).
What are you most thankful for? I'm very thankful for all the support from my parents and everyone who has impacted and touched my life in countless ways.
Any other personal tidbits? I am a goalie instructor and coach at MEGA Goaltending. I have helped coach at many different youth hockey programs and I have also volunteered with Paul Martin's SHINE A LIGH7 Foundation.
