BIO: This former varsity swimmer at Penn State decided to make the switch to club baseball after being recruited by Gateway neighbor and PSBC alumnus Peter Chalfin. After Pete saw his dominance in whiffle ball against PSBC member Steve Brouwers, Andrew was immediately signed onto the team. Once on the team, Andrew filled the void Billy "The Kid" Leonard made after his departure from the PSBC as the only half-Asian and immediately was subjected to Asian jokes (something he has battled his whole career). Taking them in stride, Andrew saw time in LF his sophomore year on the field and started in CF his junior year. The current CF starter has kept himself busy by being webmaster (you're welcome everyone), hanging out with Paul at Ricochet, and drawing on people when they're passed out.
