IN HER OWN WORDS: “When I was six or seven, I played on an all-boys soccer team. I sprinted down the field, found the perfect position, and scored the winning goal. My parents cheered.

That belief has carried me through every chapter of my leadership journey.” – Shannon Eusey said in May when accepting an award from the Center for Leadership at Cal State Fullerton.
