Name: Isabel Milner
Class year: 2027
Major: Pre-law major, accounting minor
Why did you choose Ohio Wesleyan?
Other than to play lacrosse, the academics and opportunities presented here really stand out to me. There's a huge emphasis on helping and supporting students to get involved. OWU gives students so many tools to help us succeed.
Why did you choose your major?
I want to be a lawyer, and I think having an accounting minor will be really useful, especially if I end up doing some sort of financial law.
What is your favorite memory on an Ohio Wesleyan team?
I loved playing pickleball with my team earlier this season.
What are your strengths as an athlete (as an individual)?
I think I have a lot of drive and versatility.
Is there a specific coach or teammate who has helped you get where you are?
My coaches for my club team in high school really pushed every single athlete of theirs to use lacrosse as a tool to get to college. Without them, I don't think I'd be a college athlete.
What athletic or academic achievement/accomplishment are you most proud of?
Simple answer but I'm really proud of myself for staying on top of academics, getting involved on campus, and pushing myself to take challenging classes.
What did you do to put yourself in position to achieve that?
Keep a good planner notebook in my backpack!
What is your ideal travel destination?
I'd love to go to the Swiss Alps at some point!
What is your favorite book and why?
I love "Animal Farm" by George Orwell, there's a lot of layers to it. It's kind of a psychological book that threw me for a loop the first time I read it.
What is your theme song and why?
"Wagon Wheel" by Darius Rucker, it's been my No. 1 song on streaming apps for a few years in a row.
