You may have received an invitation through the school, but we just wanted to highlight it once again. In addition to the presentation, Paul has also offered to arrange a free evaluation for field hockey players with Coach Zowie Tucker, former field hockey coach at U-Mass, Amherst and Holy Cross, who is now a Head Scout at NCSA.
