Former Foothill College basketball players Steve Mitchell and Troy McCoy spoke to our current student-athletes about their own experiences and how they made the most of their opportunities. Both former Owls transferred and had collegiate careers at four-year universities.

Athletes also heard from President Dr. Kristina Whalen and Vice President of Student Services Dr. Laurie Scolari, a track athlete herself. Students also met with various campus departments and got to know their fellow athletes.
