Why He Chose Endicott College: “Coach Kevin Bracken, the current defensive coordinator at Endicott, began recruiting me my sophomore year while he was at Bucknell. We have established a great relationship over the years. When he got the job at Endicott, I went up to visit and was simply blown away by the facilities, the family atmosphere, and the academic opportunity. All of which led to my decision in choosing Endicott over a lot of Division II offers I had.”

Favorite Athletic Memories: Going through camps every year with his best friends and defeating fellow Mercer County foe and rival, Sharon, in the 2023 District 10 Class AAA championship game.

People Who Pushed and Supported Him Most: His parents Heather and Pat Scullin, Coach Bill Dungee the Hickory Hornets football staff, and many family members and friends.
