Impossible is Nothing.

In September of 2012, Meg Herndon passed away from injuries suffered in a tragic scooter-truck collision near campus.

Meg Herndon was a soccer player under coach Heather Nelson at the time of her accident. Not only did she earn an athletic scholarship after her hard work on the field, Meg Herndon was also excelling in the classroom as well.

Herndon was a nursing major just like her mother was. She was named to the Ohio Valley Conference Commissioner’s Honor Roll and awarded Southeast Scholar-Athlete honors each of her three-years.

The Herndon family endowed a scholarship in Meg’s named following her tragic accident. The scholarship is for SEMO Women’s Soccer Athletes. Each year they hold a fundraiser at a St. Louis Cardinals game.

This motto is still displayed on team gear and in the team’s lockerroom.
