Kristina Miller has no shortage of excitement whenever she brings somebody to experience Nicaragua for the first time. She took her initial trip as part of Mission for Nicaragua in 2014 and – along with a group including one of her sons, third-year Ohio State center Harry Miller – has kept coming back with regularity ever since. Yet there’s also a bit of trepidation, she said last summer, about welcoming a new visitor on a mission trip because the “poverty is extreme and it's not easy to see.” She calls it “life-changing.”
Tommy Eichenberg, a third-year linebacker, took to the experience well.
