Coaches Corner: "There's no better example of what it looks like to be a successful student-athlete than Cam. He gives his best effort in everything that he does, whether that's on the course, in the weight room or in the classroom. We talk so much about how you do anything is how you do everything. You can't be half-hearted in the areas of life you care less about, because that mindset eventually bleeds into the things that matter most. Cam exceeds at this and is well deserving of this scholar honor "
