Ainscough on Cox: “Simon will bring great leadership to our team. He did a great job at N.C. State and we are fortunate to have him here. His experience and leadership will be a huge asset to our program.”

Cox on choosing Northeastern: “Committing to Northeastern was a no-brainer, really. It has everything I was looking for in my next school. The coaching staff has big expectations about the upcoming season and I feel they really understand where I am coming from being an international student from England. I also appreciated the coaches' no-nonsense approach while recruiting me. They scheduled a visit within a week of contacting me. I watched a high-intensity training session, which I was impressed by, and the players are serious about being successful next season. If you take that, add a good school and living in Boston, it's just something I couldn't turn down. I am excited to get started.”
