Sixteen members of the
Scott Magnet MALE (Males
Achieving Lifelong Education) Group recently visited Washburn University. Led by
Scott’s Community Liaison Leo Cangiani, the students had the opportunity to visit
with WU football players Bryce Chavis (senior, wide receiver), Kyle Emerick (redshirt
freshman , linebacker) and Jackson Kirby
(redshirt freshman , fullback) and defensive line coach Skyler Parker.
The players told the students about the skills they would need to be successful
students, athletes and young men. The kids had an opportunity to ask lots of
questions and think about how they could apply what they learned to their own
lives.
After their meeting, the coach and players took the students
on a tour of the university’s weight room and football locker room. The boys
loved hanging out with the college students and were very excited at seeing the
possibilities their futures hold.
Thanks for a great tour, guys—our students had a fantastic
time!
