Co-Hosts Brooke Miller and Coach Rich Manning explore "Connections" and how Northwestern University and Athletics are preparing athletes to make those next steps in their sport, career and life while they are in school.

We are joined by an award-winning group of 5th-year Danika (Dani) Austin, Senior Nicole Doucette and Junior GG Grust. They discuss some of their incredible experiences in business, sports and communication as well as some of their future plans. And they talk about some important role models and mentors they have encountered.

NU for Life is an award-winning program for Northwestern athletes and we go into depth here. Dani is now working for NU for Life as she finishes up her graduate degree. She will head off to a job with the Haslam Sports Group in July (Cleveland Browns, Columbus Crew).

The players discuss how they won I-MAP and Kabiller award grants to explore some fantastic experiences. Here's to the road ahead!
