As a kid what did you want to be when you grew up?
Probably lacrosse player, but my dad is a fireman also so that really is passionate to me.
Â
What is the coolest place you have ever been on vacation?
Aruba, definitely.
Once concerts are a thing again, who is one artist you would love to see in concert?
Travis Scott.
Do you have any specific pet peeves?
When my parents leave my door open when they come in my room. Gets me every time.
What is a song you listen to pregame that gets you pumped up every week?
Depends on the mood. Anything Travis [Scott]. Maybe "Can't Say." I'm big on him right now.
Favorite thing to do with your teammates and can include pre-covid activities?
Honestly maybe a little bit or Warzone. Playing a little XBOX, just relaxing.
Of your roommates, who is the messiest?
Depends. I would say me or [Peter] Dearth maybe.
Â
 Â
Who has the best taste in music on the team?
Definitely Varello.
If you were to win the lottery, what is the first thing you would buy?
Maybe a plane. I hate the long trips.
Who is your favorite athlete of all-time?
I like LeBron. I am a LeBron guy.
What is your favorite professional sports team?
That's tough. Giants. Gotta stay with the heart.
If lacrosse didn't exist, what is the next sport you would have tried to play in college?
Definitely football
