Each of these women has left a lasting impact on our team through their hard work, leadership, resilience, and dedication both on and off the platform. Both in and out of the gym, they have helped shape the culture of this program and set the standard for those who follow behind them.

We are beyond proud of everything they have accomplished during their time in their undergraduate programs at DU and we are excited for what comes next for each of them. Thank you for representing this team with pride and passion.

Once a Panther, always a Panther. Congratulations graduates 🎓💪🏼
