One of the Maryland volleyball team’s former competitors returned to the Xfinity Center Monday night, but this time, she came as an ally.
Recent University of Southern California graduate Victoria Garrick invited Maryland student-athletes to “invest in their minds” by removing the stigma around mental health and seeking professional help to deal with the pressures and anxieties that accompany playing a collegiate sport.
Revisiting the court reminded Garrick of how far she has come in her mental health journey, which she now talks about on her podcast, “RealPod,” and through her nonprofit, The Hidden Opponent.
