"This is an opportunity for people who care about sports and the entertainment industry to take their passion to the next level," said Kimberly Ballard-Washington. "You develop a love for the sports you play, and even after you get out of college, you may be interested in continuing a career in that field. We're going to show our students and community members the potential their future can hold - a path they may not have considered. We want our students to be able to get not just the entry-level jobs, but the management positions. I'm excited particularly for our HBCU population."
