Golden Gopher Athletics is proud to celebrate Black History Month over the course of February. Each week, student-athletes, alums, coaches and staff will be highlighted through social media and Gopher Sports. In this final week, we recognize student-athlete Calissa Minatee (volleyball), volleyball assistant coach Chrissy Jones Schoonderwoerd and senior associate athletic director for development Jamar Thompson.
