"When I was approached about the possibility of getting involved with a new D1 facility in Huntsville, I jumped at the chance. I am from the Huntsville area and it means a lot to me to be part of a sports facility that will greatly benefit athletes in northern Alabama. Not all young athletes have the luxury of having a coach at home. I have seen first hand how D1 benefits athletes by making them faster, stronger and more agile – all this without losing sight of the importance of building character and developing good young men and women. D1 Huntsville will be a place for athletes to go and get better at their sport, while providing the structure and character building tools that will benefit them as adults. D1 Huntsville will be THE PLACE for athletes in northern Alabama and I’m excited to be a part of it."
