JONATHAN BUSH '16: "Athletics has taught me many different ways of being a leader. I chose to be a resource for many groups and individuals, to help out in many little ways. This way of leading is an example of hard work and dedication. I've taken this leadership into the classroom to push other students to achieve their potential."

ANGELIA MILLER '16: "Softball made me who I am today, and has prepared me for the world after graduation. By encouraging me to step out of my comfort zone, a former teammate helped me develop communication skills and leadership skills. The long-lasting relationships that I've built both on and off the field have been positive in a number of ways."

JESS RHEINHEIMER '16: "In a nursing leadership class, we had to give an example of the leader you want to be later in life ... I could write a paper on Coach Kevin Griffin's leadership abilities, the Christ-like figure he is, and the life lessons I have learned from him over the years."

LONDEN WHEELER '16: "My coach became my best friend, my teammates became my biggest supporters on and off the track, and that impacted me in ways that I know I couldn't be impacted at other schools."
