The USA South Athletic Conference will once again give institutions the opportunity to spotlight student-athletes each Wednesday as a part of the Conference's #WhyD3Wednesday initiative. In its ninth year, #WhyD3Wednesday allows student-athletes to briefly explain why they chose to attend their Division III institution as well as share some of their favorite things in life. To view this week's submission, please see below and make sure to follow the hashtag #WhyD3Wednesday on the USA South's X (@usa_south) and Instagram (@usa_south) social media platforms throughout the year as League student-athletes share their stories.

"I chose to attend William Peace because of the tight-knit community feel of the campus. I was greeted with smiling faces on my visit and it felt like everyone knew each other. It felt like a family atmosphere. I also chose a Division III institution because it allowed me to play the sport I love while focusing on my academics."
