About
Welcome to “Athletes Interrupted”. Candid discussions about the challenges, grit, and resilience of current and former collegiate athletes as they entered and exited both the academic and athletic world of college and collegiate sports. The accounts were recorded on campus by students and faculty creating a candid look into their personal stories and experience. The interviews were conducted by Dr. Joyce Mikal-Flynn, currently a professor at Sacramento State and Bethany Crouch, Student-Athlete and Academic Success Coordinator at the University. The program is the result of an NCAA grant to help the student-athlete gain a better understanding of coping with the challenges of entering into collegiate sports, academics and the effects of injury.
