Editor’s Note: The SportsField Management magazine Rising Star Awards are an independent award production created and presented by SportsField Management magazine. Although SFMA members were involved in the nominee review process, the awards program is not an official SFMA award. As such, nominees did not need to be members of the national SFMA to be considered for a Rising Star Award.
