“Saint Francis Xavier has the right balance of academics, a well developed football program and Catholic traditions,” explained Krick of his decision.  “The campus at St. FX is small and welcoming which drew me to the school initially.”

“The coaches at Saint Francis will allow me to better my football knowledge and give an opportunity to improve my strength and football skills. Saint Francis Xavier is well recognized across Canada for academics, which is very important for me. It’s a well rounded school which offered everything I was looking for.”
