| Why St. Thomas: | I decided
to follow my potential (still discerning) calling to the Catholic
priesthood and attend the St. John Vianney Minor Seminary which is
on the campus of St. Thomas. While the seminary was and still is
priority number one, I was also looking for a place where I could
continue to use my God given athletic talent and where I could get
a good education. St. Thomas fit the bill.
