2019-20 NESTIES Recap

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic which shut down college athletics in March 2020, the annual NESTIES event was modified and celebrated over a four-month span through several digital platforms. It was perhaps one of the most challenging times in our program's history, however, it was important to recognize and celebrate our student-athletes for all their tireless efforts.
