The story below is an interesting one. Kiki Stokes is a former Husker softball player and (I believe) is currently (or recently) a volunteer coach for the Huskers. She was a two-time All-American for Nebraska and was drafted to play in pro softball.
I’m just spitballing here, but I’m guessing that there are not a lot of pro softball teams and that opportunities to get paid to play a sport you love are pretty rare in softball. That makes what Kiki and her teammates did even more remarkable.
I’m not putting this article into Flakes because of its political connotations.
