What's UP doc?

As we get closer to the start of another season I am often reminded about the things that make this activity special.  A lot of times you can get caught up in "the struggle" of it all and forget about the reward that lays on the other side.  

Earlier this week, I received a text from UP alum Sarra Bae, alerting me to her recent admission into Medical School.  I was so excited to hear the news I literally fist pumped the air about 50 times.  Am I surprised by the accomplishment, NOPE... her resume has a long list of accomplishments.  But at the same time Sarra's story is one everyone should stop and examine.  You can read a little bit of her story here.  It reminds you that United is more than just "drums in a gym."
