Team shows support for Mens Soccer

The team came out to support the Mens Soccer team as they took on Oglethorpe at home Tuesday night.  The Mens Lacrosse team is proud of their school, and cheers on fellow students at any home sporting event. We believe that every team works hard and deserves to have support from other teams on campus.  Best of luck to the Mens Soccer team with the rest of their season!!

Fall Ball Schedule

Josh Schmidt

• Hometown- Jacksonville, FL
• Position- Defense 
• Year- Senior
• Major- Business with a focus in General Business and Management 

• What do you like to do in your free time? "I usually just like to hang out with my friends, throw the ball around a little bit.  I love to watch football. Football is the thing I love to watch the most."

• What are your goals for the season? "Some of the goals for the season, just like any other sport I have played, is to just get better every single week that we have in our season.  Just that after every game we left it all out on the field as a team and that we got better."

• Do you have any pregame rituals? "I mean before the game I try to keep to myself.  I don't talk to a lot of people, and I kinda get into my zone and try and focus on what I have to do.  I just kinda go through what I am expected to do in the game."

• What made you choose Piedmont? "I originally choose Piedmont honestly just because of the environment and I like the area that I was going to. Especially since it was a big change for me going from Jacksonville all the way up to Demorest, Georgia, but I really learned to like it. I think I made a really good choice."

• What do you hope to do after graduation? "I am actually looking forward to moving to Destin, Florida.  Hopefully I will be working there as a general manager for a few small businesses."

• If you could spend the day with anyone who would it be and why? "I would probably spend another day with my great grandfather who just recently passed away.  Just because I just loved spending time with him and all the things he taught me and I would really want another day with him."

• Who is your favorite music artist? "Of Monsters and Men."

• What is your favorite movie? "Division III Football's Finest."
