I read this story of Jodie Heinicka, a Mizzou gymnast voted Big 12 sports person of the year. Jodie wakes at 6am every weekday to help a quadriplegic man get out of bed, dress, shave, ect. Read the entire story here. Being a college student is hard enough, not to mention training for a sport that is as demanding as gymnastics. Throw in community service, and you might just have an all around role model. Would like to hear which college gymnast you think is a great role model... |
