I really connected with Nate (Forsyth) and Gunnar (Gardner) and Connor (Hanson). They are younger coaches and I like the vibe of the school and the direction it is going. The coaches and administration seem great and are motivated to make Ellsworth as successful as possible, which is why I loved the idea of coming here."
