 Van Weezep chose USU Eastern ,“because I wanted to continue playing basketball and my good friend Brad Barton was the coach down here, so I came to play for him. He passed away while I was on my LDS mission but felt like I owed it to him to come back to Price, Utah.”
His favorite things about USUE are sports, professors and small classes. Overall, he describes USUE as small, fun and personal.
