Scott Gives In Depth Look Through Eyes of Student-Athlete at NCAA Convention

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. - Junior volleyball player and First Team All-SCAC honor Raven Scott of Millsaps was selected to write a daily blog for the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference which recapped some of the activities that she and her fellow student-athletes expierenced this past week at the NCAA Convention in Indianapolis. 

The Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference was represented by 18 student-athletes at the 2012 NCAA Convention this week. Made possible through the NCAA Division III Strategic Initiative Grant, the 18 student-athletes participated in activities ranging from education sessions to business sessions to the NCAA Honors Celebration.

Friday was the last full day at the NCAA Convention for the SCAC 18, and perhaps the most enjoyable. After a day that began with the NCAA Division III Issues Forum, half of the group spent some time with the Division III National Student-Athlete Advisory Committee. From there, student-athletes were allowed to "peak" behind the curtain that is conference operations as the group attended a portion of the conference's Athletics Directors Council winter meeting.

The night was capped off with a magical evening at the NCAA Honors Celebration where the SCAC 18 were afforded the opportunity to hear incredibly inspiring tales of accomplishment from current and past NCAA student-athletes and to rub elbows with former professional athletes such as Tim Brown (football), Kevin Johnson (basketball) and David Robinson (basketball).
