The event will also showcase a panel featuring five exemplary students and alumni from the leadership minor program as they each share incredibly powerful and personal stories
of their transformational leadership journeys at UNF and the positive impact that intentional leadership development made in their personal, academic and professional lives.
Fun will continue throughout the night with a VIP Zamboni ride and a broom ball competition after the game between UNF coaches and coaches from partners schools in Clay,
Duval and St. Johns County.
