A Legacy of Strength: Chance & JT
A Legacy Of Strength
Bulldog standouts Chance Veazey and Johnathan Taylor were honored before the win over South Carolina on March 24, 2018, and a unique permanent display on the Foley Field concourse was unveiled celebrating “A Legacy of Strength.”
Both of their baseball careers were cut short by life-altering accidents at UGA. Their ability to persevere serves an inspiration to all those who know them and their stories. Both graduated in 2013 and live and work in their Georgia hometowns: Veazey in Tifton and Taylor in Acworth. The display features augmented reality and its own app that fans can download on their mobile device titled “A Legacy of Strength.”
Once you download the app, open it and point your camera at the display, then watch at both the story being told and the technology that makes what you’re seeing possible.
In December of 2013, Bulldogs Johnathan Taylor, Brett DeLoach and Chance Veazey earned their degrees from UGA. The Taylor and Veazey families along with several of their teammates, athletic trainer Mike Dillon and their head coach David Perno returned to UGA and Foley Field to honor Chance and JT in 2018.
