Son of Jim and Beth Loforte. Sisters…. Marissa and Kylie. Inspired by teammates…. Everyday at practice they all work to make sure they are pushing eachother and pushing this program in the right direction. Favorite Professional athlete…. Lebron James. The man takes care of things on and off the court like nobody else. When not running, enjoys hanging out with teammates. Best Movie - Game of Thrones. Must have food - Frozen Pizza... can't survive off-campus living without it! Why Scott chose UB: UB was an affordable education that offered a degree in Civil Engineering that was not too far from home. Also had an athletics program that was a good fit and could contribute to and one that was on the rise. UB checked all of these boxes off making it
