GET TO KNOW KATIE BODEN
?What did you like most about the lacrosse program? I liked the family aspect of the lacrosse program. As soon as I visited the school I could tell how close everyone was and I really admired that. Also, UMass lacrosse has been successful in the past and I knew how great of an opportunity it would be to play for UMass.
?How would one of your teammates describe you? Bubbly.
?When did you start playing sports? I've played sports my whole entire life!
?How do you like to start your day? By wanting to stay in bed and on social media.
?What are some of your staple foods & what are your "cheat" foods? I can never resist a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup (cheat food of course).
?What are some of your must see TV shows? I'm obsessed with "Friends" and I watch it every single night. I also love "One Tree Hill" and I watched the whole "Friday Night Lights" series over the summer. They are all great.

?Who is the most influential person or people in your life? -My parents are definitely the most influential people in my life. I really would not be the person I am without them.
