Hannah Ketcherside, a freshman on the Pacific women's tennis team, has been giving back to her community since she was just a child.
A native of Stockton, Ketcherside has been organizing a sock drive to benefit the homeless in the Stockton area since she was seven. According to the Stockton Record, where this story was originally published, the freshman has gathered and donated roughly 55,000 pairs of socks since she began the drive.
Ketcherside continues the tradition now even as she balances the hectic schedule of a student-athlete. She collects socks year-round and sorts and organizes them for distribution at St.
