Seth Gustafson Featured in Prominent Educational Journal


Senior defensive back and captain Seth Gustafson recently completed a successful football career in which he started for all four years and recorded five interceptions and 15 passes defended.  Those numbers likely would have been higher, but as our best cover corner teams rarely challenged him. 

Not only was Seth successful on the field, but he's been tremendous in the classroom as well.  This past fall was Seth's third in a row with a 4.0 gpa while majoring in Psychology.  He's in line to be named academic all-conference for the third year in a row (at the time, football players were not eligible for the award as first-years).  During the summer before his senior year, Seth completed a Mentored Advanced Project (MAP) with one of his advisors, and the summer before that he worked at Rosecrance, a non-profit mental health facility in his hometown of Rockford, IL.  Because of his work at Rosecrance, Seth was recently featured in the Undergraduate Journal of Service Learning and Community-Based Research

Nice work Seth!
