Tallahassee, Florida, May 8th, 2009 – Onyx Group staff member and former Florida State offensive lineman Matt Meinrod spent the winter working with Harris Kaufman, a junior FSU student, in pursuit of making the football team as a walk on this spring. The duo spent countless hours on the football field going through drills and conditioning work to prepare him for his tryout. What seemed like a lofty goal turned into reality as Kaufman made the team this past March. The story was so inspiring it got picked up by Sun Sports Network which recently aired last month.
“Harris came to me last fall with high hopes. He did everything I asked and it paid off. I couldn’t be more proud,” said Matt Meinrod, Regional Business Developer with Onyx Group.
