Extremely grateful for my four years as a Princeton Tiger! I want to thank the coaching staff, my teammates, and all who have contributed to my experience at Princeton. I have entered the transfer portal as a grad transfer RB with one year of eligibility remaining.

During a study at Harvard in 1957, Dr. Curt Richter placed rats in a pool of water to test how long they could tread water. On average they'd give up, sink and drown after 15 minutes. But right before they gave up due to exhaustion, the researchers would pluck them out, dry them off, let them rest for a few minutes and put them back in for a second round. In this second try, how long do you think they lasted? Remember, they had just swam until failure only a few short minutes ago... How long do you think? Another 15 minutes? 10 minutes? 5 minutes? NO! 60 HOURS! That's not an error. That's right! 60 HOURS of swimming which is 2.5 DAYS! The conclusion drawn was that since the rats BELIEVED that they would eventually be rescued, they could push their bodies way past what they previously thought impossible. I will leave you with this thought: If an Unstoppable Belief can cause exhausted rats to swim for that long, what could a Belief in yourself and your Capabilities Do for You? Remember What you’re capable of. Remember Why you’re here. Keep swimming and Never Ever Quit!

10th at the Olympics. Not the result we wanted, but still a very cool experience. My support system was unbelievable through the whole thing💪🏼❤️ It was an honor to represent you all and I will make sure to do a better and better job of it with each opportunity that I get!

Not a whole lot to say about the 2 man these past couple days. Don’t think this “Olympic debut” matches our capabilities. This one stings, but we’re here for the 4 man, not the 2 man. We will be going into this wknd with a short memory and a chip on our shoulder. Stay tuned 😤👊🏼
