We’re so excited to celebrate an incredible member of our Rec Sports team who was recognized at the UGA Student Affairs Awards Ceremony in May.

Sarah Hall was named the New Professional of the Year, and it couldn’t be more deserved. From day one, she’s brought energy, care, and a true passion for supporting students and building community. Whether it’s jumping in to help wherever needed, leading the Aquatics area with intention, or showing up for our staff in meaningful ways, their impact has been felt across Rec Sports and beyond.

A note from their nominator:
"No matter the setting, Sarah approaches her work with passion, attention to detail, and intentionality. Sarah cares deeply about her students and consistently goes above and beyond to improve the student employee experience. She’s a huge asset to our team and I am so grateful to call her a coworker and friend. I cannot think of anyone more deserving of this award than her."

We’re so proud to have Sarah Hall as part of our Ram Fam and can’t wait to see all the amazing things ahead. Join us in giving her a big congratulations on this huge accomplishment!
