Welcome to the very first blog centered around Northeastern University's best and brightest, students of the Master's of Sports Leadership program. This will be a place to keep up with alumni from years ago, get a look at the happenings of the program today, and be a tool to connect the past and the present for better networking opportunities. Moving forward, if you would like to be a part of the celebration, don't hesitate to contact Cherokee, the facilitator of this project, to be a spotlight or nominate someone else to be spotlighted. GO HUSKIES!
