Why Mercer?

“I chose Mercer University because of the welcoming atmosphere, school size, and location. I have always considered Mercer University since the campus is only a short two-hour drive from home. The factors that led to my decision were the bond our team shares on and off the court along with the great coaches. I can’t wait to see what the future holds for this program.”
