Janet Green, pursued and won this grant, for the department, from the USA Pickleball Association (USAPA). The award will provide 23 paddles and 1 net system. Pickleball is an exceptional paddle, ball and net game which brings all levels and ages of people together. It is a lifetime sport with a high degree of skill success. We commend Green for her leadership. Pictured, from left, Darin Thomas, Dr. Lawrence Varner, Green and Dr. Barbara A.
