Brycen and Sarah met at MidAmerica Nazarene University in February of 2020. They met after Brycen had watched Sarah pitch in a home game, where he was very impressed! Only a month after meeting, the world shut down and Sarah went home to California and Brycen went home to Indiana.

Though they were 2,100.5 miles apart, they facetimed daily. On April 13, 2020, Brycen asked Sarah to be his girlfriend--she said yes!

Without ever meeting Brycen's family, Sarah flew out to Elkhart, Indiana, in June and stayed with his family. The two finally had their first date at Simonton Lake Drive-In.

They were able to return to on-campus classes in the Fall where Sarah continued her Elementary Education degree and Brycen continued his Business Administration degree.

Brycen travelled to California in December of 2020 for the first time where he was finally able to meet Sarah's family.

Every summer they endured long distance dating until school began again.

On May 6, 2023 Sarah graduated and returned home for the Summer.

In the Fall of 2023, Brycen took his fifth year to play another year of baseball and work.

Brycen flew out to California over Christmas break and on December 15, 2023, Brycen asked Sarah to marry him--she said yes!

Brycen graduated from MNU in May of 2024!
