Life University Athletics

MARIETTA, Ga. ---- 24 Life University student-athletes earned their degrees Friday afternoon, as the school hosted its summer commencement in the Eagles' Nest on campus. 

Of the 24 graduates, 10 graduated with honors including women's rugby player Tatum Johnson who was the Salutatorian. There were nine different athletic programs recognized at the graduation ceremony.

Director of Athletics Jayme Pendergast expressed, "Graduation is always a fulfilling day. When we onboard student-athletes the day they arrive, I tell them that being a collegiate student-athlete is one of the hardest jobs to have. The individuals that make it across the stage truly have finished the job, despite the challenges. Today we have national champions, conference champions, All-Americans and scholar-athletes getting their diploma. I'm so proud of each and every one of them for their unique contributions to their teams, the athletics department, and the university."
