Prinyarux on why she chose Rutgers: I chose Rutgers for their amazing tennis program as well as the elite academics. The team, coaches, athletic advisors, and staff were so welcoming to my family and I. Everyone that I met was genuine, it really made it clear that Rutgers was the place I wanted to be. It was a great fit for me academically and athletically. The amount of support that student-athletes have is surreal. Rutgers made me feel at home; a place I see myself being the next four years.
