True Blue Podcast: Episode One feat. Kennedy Everson
2/19/2024 12:00:00 PM | Field Hockey, Women's Lacrosse, Athletics
DURHAM – The True Blue Podcast, spearheaded by the Blue Devil Network, is a student-athlete led video podcast designed to uncover and share the stories that feature Duke student-athletes.
The overarching goal of the True Blue Podcast is to provide fans with a greater insight into the human side of Duke athletics through open and unadulterated conversations. True Blue is all about showing the outside world who Duke student-athletes are when they step off the fields of play. Hosted by junior Duke field hockey player Shelby Bumgarner, this will be released on a monthly basis.
Kennedy Everson of the women's lacrosse program will be the first guest. Everson is a redshirt sophomore goalie and saw considerable playing time in 2022 before being sidelined in 2023 due to injury.
In this first episode, Shelby and Kennedy detail Kennedy's premature birth, passion for healthcare and medical internships in Mombasa, Kenya. They also dive into her active role within Duke's CAPE Program, a unique mentoring program that provides female student-athletes exposure to the medical field, and preview the 2024 Duke women's lacrosse season.
The True Blue Podcast is available here and on Spotify and YouTube.
Duke Centennial
In 2024, Duke celebrates its Centennial, marking one hundred years since Trinity College became Duke University. Duke will use this historic milestone to deepen the understanding of its history, inspire pride and strengthen bonds and partnerships, and prepare for a second century of continued excellence and impactful leadership.
