More about Sam:

Last year former Cornell captain Ping Lui gave me the nickname "Samkin" and I haven't been able to shake it since.

 

Thoughts on the ECTC (INCTL) or Taekwondo in general:

I feel extremely lucky to be competing in Taekwondo, especially for a team like Cornell and in an environment like the ECTC. I'm extremely blessed to have this opportunity, and I'm grateful to all the coaches, teammates, and competitors who have helped make this an amazing experience for me.
