DANELIAK’S CAREER STATS
What makes Friartown special to Sarah Daneliak? Simply put, Friartown is special because of the people. From teammates and peers, to coaches and professors, the people at Providence College are what makes it feel like home. Upon visiting PC, I immediately felt like I found my place from all of the warm and welcoming interactions I had across campus. Providence brings out the best in everyone, as you are surrounded by genuine, loving, and inspirational individuals both on the court and in the classroom. Coaches, staff, and professors alike are authentic and do not only care about your performance on the court or in the classroom, but your development as a person. Transferring to PC has been the best decision of my life as I have made lifelong friends, played the sport I love, and grown tremendously as an individual and as a teammate.
