Looking at a key #CSCUnite25 memory from earlier in the week ⏪

In a surprise segment during Monday's CSC All-Star Night of Honors, presented by @espn, CSC President Kevin Trainor (@KTHogs) presented the Keith Jackson Eternal Flame Award to Holly Rowe (@sportsiren / @ESPNPR) — a leader in her field and an advocate for communicators at all levels of college sports.

Take a look at the exact moment that Holly Rowe learned she was receiving the award and the events that followed ⤵️
