Mike grew up about 20 minutes from South Philadelphia in the suburbs of Washington Township, NJ. He has been a diehard Philadelphia sports fan all of his life. He has been a student at Penn State Main Campus ever since transferring from Saint Joseph's University midway through his Freshman year of college in 2007-08. His greatest sports memories so far are the Phillies' World Series Championship and parade, having season tickets for last year's Penn State Men's football Big Ten Championship season, rushing the court on the buzzer-beating win in men's basketball vs. Illinois, going to countless Philly sports games for all four teams, and just growing up rooting for Penn State and Philly sports teams.
