#FlashbackFriday: Megan LaVacca (Salem)

The USA South Athletic Conference will once again give a nostalgic look at institutional staff members each Friday as a part of the Conference's #FlashbackFriday initiative. The Conference will showcase an individual's past, both in visual and written forms, detailing where they have been and how they currently serve their athletic department. To view this week's submission, please see below and make sure to follow the hashtag #FlashbackFriday on the USA South's X (@usa_south) and Instagram (@usa_south) social media platforms throughout the year.
