I was recruited to play baseball here, but one of the biggest things that I realized when I actually stepped foot on campus for my official visit\u2014and something that my coaches in high school had always told me, my parents had always told me\u2014or if you&#039;re going to school and you didn&#039;t have sports, just make sure that it&#039;s a place that you would actually love to be and love to learn.<\/p>\n<p class=\"hpu-video-transcript-text\">If you weren&#039;t playing sports, as soon as I stepped foot on campus, I knew that HPU was the place for me.
