Four years ago, I began my KSR journey as a freshman at UK and as a brand-new intern writing for this website. One of my first story ideas came from something affecting my own life: the freshman 15. But instead of talking about the transition to college and inevitable weight gain, I decided to feature a few of UK’s most promising freshmen. The goal, of course, was to find 15 incoming freshmen with the potential to be breakout stars, both during their rookie season and throughout their career at the University of Kentucky.
Fast forward to today, and I’m a senior nearing graduation.
