Picard on UMass: "I say my official was like that TLC TV show “Say Yes to the Dress”. The moment I stepped foot on campus and met the girls on the team I knew it was the place for me. I also loved the dedication, devotion, and direction the coaches and team were going in; I knew I would be a part of growth. As for academics, I found it comforting that I could study anything I wanted to as I didn’t know which direction to go in at the time."
