First Person: Shea Rush

Posted Sep 7, 2017
Shea Rush: I already was excited about my sophomore season. But then Coach Williams got us together as a team at the football game against Cal. We always have a team meal before each football game. He gathered us around, and he said some very nice things. He said that he was proud of me, and then he said he was going to put me on scholarship. That made me feel truly honored. (GoHeels.com)
