Student Staff Spotlight

From time to time, we like to acknowledge the accomplishments, both “on and off the court,” of our student staff. We appreciate what they do for us and wish them luck in their various endeavors.

Sarah Ward – Field House Supervisor

Sarah initially joined Campus Recreation Service in the spring of 2012 by being an Intramurals soccer and basketball referee.  She then left for the summer to Montana to work at an Oncology camp for kids.  During Fall Semester, the Field House hired her as an attendant and by the end of the semester she was promoted to Supervisor.  Sarah’s big adventure, once she has graduated, is to join the Peace Corp.  So it wasn’t a big surprise to us when she announced that she has qualified for the Study Abroad program and will be going during Spring 2013.  Sarah happens to be the first University of Utah student to ever go to Botswana for the Study Abroad program.  She has a big heart and an equally big smile and zest for life.  We wish her well and look forward to seeing her in the future.

Justin Farmer – Field House Supervisor

Justin joined the Field House staff during the Fall of 2012 as an attendant.  During that time, he completed an internship with us and is one of our TRX instructors for our Fitness Program.   He graduated Fall of 2012 with a degree in Exercise Science, emphasizing in Fitness Leadership along with a minor in Nutrition.  Justin hails from Irvine California and prior to coming to the University received his undergrad from Orange Coast Community College.  There he was a middle linebacker for the Pirates!  His next academic goal is to get a Masters in Nutrition.  Good Luck in your future endeavors Justin!
