“I first found out about Northwood when one of the older kids in my hockey organization went there. I actually started looking into it during my sophomore year when my coaches wanted us to look at prep schools. While doing my research on schools with good hockey and education that are not too far from home, Northwood came up.
“I think this first semester of my second year has been great. Although there are a lot of new people this year, the community is great and very close-knit. I think something memorable has been walking into town with my friends, whether it be big groups or just a few people.
“My favorite memory over my first year and a half at Northwood has to be the long bus rides with the team. While it can be boring at times, I think it is a great opportunity for bonding with the whole team.
“Right now, I am not sure what I want to do after I graduate from Northwood. I am applying to a few colleges, but I am also looking into junior hockey. Either way, I plan on playing hockey at some level next year.
“One thing I would change is for the cafeteria to offer more fresh fruit options around meals. I think it would be better for the school and our health.”
