Lia Edwards was in a doctor's office when she was blindsided with news she never expected: She had Type 1 diabetes.
In her early 20s and healthy, with no family history of the disease, she was suddenly forced to alter her lifestyle.
"I didn't go to the doctor's unless there was a need," said Edwards, the wife of Arizona State head football coach Herm Edwards. "So, it was a real big shocker. I was hospitalized for five days until they could control and bring my sugars down."
In college sports, student-athletes and coaches perform the majority of community service through coaching clinics and other community events.
