Awesome people doing awesome things!
This past weekend, UGA’s Iman, Emma, and Annika had the opportunity to help out on the sidelines with @scstormfootball. Watching these three grow/succeed in a field that is predominantly male (especially in football) is a testament to all of their hard work. Extremely proud!
