Team Roster
The ConnectED Athletics team roster is made up of current career athletes who have personal experience in managing the transitions from high school to college to life after the game comes to an end. Our goal is to share those experiences, tools, knowledge with the next generation of male and female athletes across all sports to increase successful transition to life after sports.
