5. How do you think you've changed as a player or person over your career at Marquette?
Nolan: I've matured a great deal as a player and person over the course of my career at Marquette. I've learned to value the process instead of being results-driven.
6. What is your favorite thing about the city of Milwaukee? Why?
Nolan: My favorite thing about the city of Milwaukee is that it is like a smaller version of Chicago. A little taste of home wherever you go in the city. I love Milwaukee for this and it has become a home away from home.
7. What have you learned that you will take with you as you move on from MU?
Nolan: Something I will take with me as I move on from Marquette is valuing the process and the journey it takes to get to your goals.
8. Who is a teammate that has inspired you? Why?
Nolan: A teammate that has inspired me is Mason Woodward. You can see the joy he brings to the game. Not only is he an amazing lacrosse player, but an amazing person as well. I believe it is an obvious answer as he brings everyone up constantly to the standard.
