Mast will enter his third season as a varsity competitor this Fall. Starting out on the field as a sophomore in the 2013, Mast did not immediately assume the leader position. “As a sophomore, I stayed back and just did my job, which was keeping the ball out of the net,” Mast said. Going into his senior year, Mast feels prepared to lead his team with plenty of experience and wisdom under his belt.
