Quotable
"There are few days in a person's life that are more precious than today. It is the culmination of a journey that not only grows knowledge but also provides the social impact to hopefully prepare a young person for the times ahead. We celebrate this group that competed and contributed to our special culture. We are grateful they chose Chattanooga and look forward to their next chapter and forever being a part of our Mocs family." – Mark Wharton, Vice Chancellor for Athletics
