Wooten鈥檚 journey to the top has been fueled by determination, discipline, and an unwavering commitment to excellence.

鈥淚f it was easy, everyone would be doing it,鈥� said Wooten.

What began as a freshman-year goal to become First Team All-Conference quickly evolved into a decorated collegiate career filled with championships and national recognition. After conversations with her coaches, Wooten set her sights even higher: becoming an NCAA Division III All-American.

Mission accomplished.

搁别蝉耻尘茅

Now a five-time All-American, Wooten has built one of the most accomplished r茅sum茅s in program history, earning:

• Six NCAA Division III First Team All-American honors
• Six NCAA Division III Second Team All-American honors
• NCAA Division III Athlete of the Week honors
• Two NCAA USTFCCCA South Region Athlete of the Year awards
• Four USA South Conference Female Athlete of the Year awards
• Two 麻豆原创 Female Athlete of the Year honors

Currently ranked No. 1 nationally in Division III in the 200m, Wooten credits her success to a combination of hard work, mental strength, and the support system around her.

Her Inspiration

鈥淢y inspiration came from a mix of personal goals and the people around me who believed in my potential,鈥� Wooten shared. 鈥淚鈥檝e always wanted to push past my limits and prove to myself what I鈥檓 capable of. Seeing other elite athletes perform at a high level motivated me to elevate my own performance.鈥�

She emphasized that reaching the top required consistency, trust in her coaches, and attention to every detail of her performance.

鈥淕etting to number one didn鈥檛 happen overnight,鈥� she said. 鈥淚t took consistent training, staying disciplined, and focusing on the small details like my start, transition, and finish. I also had to stay mentally strong and confident, especially during tough races and practices.鈥�

Competing at an elite level in track and field requires more than talent alone, according to Wooten.

鈥淐ompeting at a high level takes a combination of physical ability, mental toughness, and discipline,鈥� she said. 鈥淵ou have to be committed every day, not just at meets, but in practice, recovery, nutrition, and even rest.鈥�

Her latest All-American honor came after another demanding season that tested both her physical and mental endurance.

鈥淎 major role in becoming All-American this season was consistency and staying locked in on my goals,鈥� Wooten said. 鈥淚t wasn鈥檛 easy. There were challenges, tough workouts, and moments where I had to push through fatigue and doubt. But staying disciplined and believing in the process helped me reach that goal.鈥�

Wooten was also recently named NCAA USTFCCCA South Region Athlete of the Year for the second time in her career, an honor she says carries deep meaning.

鈥淚t means a lot to me mentally, physically, and emotionally,鈥� she said. 鈥淚t鈥檚 a reminder that all the hard work I鈥檝e put in is paying off. Being recognized as the best in the region builds my confidence and motivates me even more.鈥�

As she prepares to compete on the national stage once again, the entire Wesleyan community will be cheering her on as she races for another championship title.

This new endowed scholarship reflects what NC Wesleyan is built upon: relationships, tradition, and the deep bonds that form within the Bishop community and last long after graduation.

The scholarship will support junior or senior students of any major, with preference given to students employed in the , who demonstrate academic achievement or financial need, and who exhibit strong personal character. Students may be domestic or international. Once the endowment reaches the University鈥檚 required minimum funding level, the scholarship will be awarded annually and is renewable in accordance with University guidelines.

鈥淭his scholarship is about more than financial support,鈥� said West. 鈥淚t鈥檚 about honoring people who made our lives better and remembering the moments that made Wesleyan feel like home.鈥�

A Homecoming Tradition 鈥淟ike No Other鈥�

The scholarship鈥檚 origin is rooted in a cherished NC Wesleyan Homecoming tradition shared by West and his close friends beginning in the early 1990s. Each year, West reunited with Marty Sarra and Brian Richardson for a weekend filled with Homecoming activities, camaraderie, and the University鈥檚 alumni golf tournament. A few years later, Phillip Boone ’70 joined the group, completing the foursome that would continue their tradition for nearly three decades.

One of their most meaningful stops each year wasn鈥檛 on the golf course 鈥� it was inside the .

On Saturday mornings during Homecoming, the friends made it a point to visit the bookstore, pick up new Wesleyan gear, and spend time catching up with 鈥淢iss Rachel.鈥� For them, it became one of the most special parts of the weekend.

鈥淥ur visits with Rachel were always memorable,鈥� West shared. 鈥淲e looked forward to seeing Rachel every year, and she looked forward to seeing us too, always welcoming us with open arms, and a big smile on her face.鈥�

Honoring Marty鈥檚 Commitment and Character

Marty Sarra鈥檚 dedication to this annual tradition was unmatched. In later years, he famously made the long drive from Canada each year to return to Rocky Mount and play in what many know today as the Wesleyan Cup Golf Tournament, simply because the weekend鈥攁nd the friendships tied to it鈥攎eant that much to him.

West said Marty鈥檚 presence brought something special to everyone around him.

鈥淢arty was a dear friend for life,鈥� West said. 鈥淎ll our lives were better because he came our way.鈥�

A Scholarship Rooted in Service and Memory

By centering the scholarship around students who work in the bookstore, West hopes to honor Rachel Dix鈥檚 spirit of kindness and connection, while also supporting today鈥檚 students who balance employment with academic responsibility.

The Martin A. Sarra Endowed Scholarship Fund in Honor of Rachel T. Dix will be invested as part of NCWU鈥檚 permanently restricted endowment and awarded in perpetuity. In accordance with University policy, the scholarship will be awarded once the fund meets the required minimum endowment level. Annual scholarship amounts will follow NC Wesleyan鈥檚 endowment payout guidelines.

A Call to Celebrate Bishop Friendships

NC Wesleyan hopes this scholarship will inspire alumni and friends to reflect on the people who shaped their college experience鈥攁nd to consider honoring those memories through giving.

This new scholarship serves as a reminder that the Wesleyan experience does not end at graduation. It continues through friendships, traditions, and the people who make the campus feel like home.

Those interested in contributing to the scholarship fund, or establishing an endowed scholarship of their own, are encouraged to contact the NC Wesleyan Office of Advancement.

A total of 13 NCWU students have successfully submitted and passed the edTPA since the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction required that the item be used as the singular portfolio option for accredited Teacher Education programs beginning Fall 2025. Most recently, three additional students received passing scores, including one traditional student and two Adult and Professional Study (APS) students.

Quotes from NCWU Faculty & Staff

鈥淭his is a tremendous accomplishment for our students and our faculty,鈥� said Kelvin L. Spragley, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Education and Director of Teacher Education. 鈥淭he edTPA is a rigorous assessment that requires significant preparation, support, and dedication. To maintain a 100% pass rate reflects the strength of our program and the commitment of our instructors to student success.鈥�

Spragley also recognized the work of the program鈥檚 faculty, specifically highlighting Dr. Hart and Dr. Collins for their leadership and support of students throughout the semester in EDU 415.

鈥淭he guidance and encouragement provided in EDU 415 played an essential role in helping our teacher candidates complete this important milestone as they finalize their North Carolina teaching licenses,鈥� Spragley said. 鈥淎nd it鈥檚 important to note teachers are licensed, not certified.鈥�

Dr. Joseph H. Lane, Jr., Provost and Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs, praised the Teacher Education program for its continued success and commitment to preparing highly qualified educators.

鈥淢aintaining a 100% pass rate on a nationally scored assessment like the edTPA is a remarkable achievement,鈥� Lane said. 鈥淚t reflects the academic excellence of our Teacher Education program and the dedication of our faculty to ensuring that NC Wesleyan graduates are fully prepared to serve and lead in today鈥檚 classrooms. We are incredibly proud of our students and the faculty members who support them.鈥�

The Student Experience

One of the students who recently passed the edTPA is Emily Mason, an Elementary Education major in the Fall 2026 graduating class. Mason said the process strengthened her ability to create meaningful lessons that support every learner.

鈥淭he edTPA experience taught me about the importance of planning your lessons and using knowledge of students to create the best possible lessons so that every student can learn,鈥� Mason said. 鈥淚t taught me to look at my students and figure out how to plan my lessons to fit and meet all my students鈥� needs.鈥�

Mason added that completing the portfolio is an exciting step toward her future career in education.

鈥淐ompleting this licensure requirement makes me feel excited for what鈥檚 to come in my student teaching and beyond,鈥� she said. 鈥淚t also allows me to breathe a bit easier. I feel a lot more relaxed and prepared for what is to come.鈥�

As she looks ahead, Mason said her goal is to create a classroom environment where students feel supported emotionally and academically.

鈥淚 want to make sure that every student who walks in my room feels heard and understood,鈥� she said. 鈥淚 want to make sure to meet my students where they are emotionally and academically.鈥�

Mason also offered encouragement to future teacher candidates preparing for the edTPA.

鈥淭ake your time and manage your time,鈥� she said. 鈥淟ook at your handbooks and listen to the feedback provided by your professor. Most of all鈥攜ou鈥檝e got this!鈥�

Why it matters…

Maintaining state and regional accreditation standards, while also preparing students to succeed on licensure assessments such as edTPA, requires extensive faculty effort and resources. Spragley emphasized that achieving these results within a small liberal arts institution makes the accomplishment even more significant.

鈥淭o maintain high pass rates on licensure tests and performance portfolios as a small program within a small liberal arts university is a juggernaut of a task,鈥� he said. 鈥淲hile we may not have the resources that many larger institutions possess, we continue to meet the challenge and achieve exceptional outcomes.鈥�

NCWU鈥檚 Teacher Education program continues to prepare future educators through rigorous coursework, hands-on field experiences, and strong faculty mentorship ensuring graduates are equipped to lead and succeed in today鈥檚 classrooms.

Following his graduation from Wesleyan in 2023, Nethercutt moved to Salt Lake City for a yearlong internship at the University of Utah. After completing the experience, he returned to North Carolina and began a new chapter as an elementary school music teacher near Wilmington in 2024. While the transition brought exciting opportunities, it also came with significant personal and professional adjustments.

鈥�These Illustrations tells the story of how a relationship formed and blossomed from a friendship to a romance,鈥� said Nethercutt. 鈥淚t became an irreplicable interconnectedness created by shared hardship.鈥�

Nethercutt shared that the first half of the song reflects his internal conflict about allowing love into his life during a time when he already felt emotionally overwhelmed. As the song progresses, it shifts toward the peace and warmth he found through the relationship, ultimately capturing the exhilaration of falling in love while navigating a difficult season of life.

In addition to its personal meaning, Nethercutt noted that the song was also his most challenging production project to date. With its extended length and complex structure, including key and time signature changes, the recording process required significant time and attention to detail. Nethercutt wrote, performed, recorded, and produced the track entirely on his own from his apartment studio.

鈥淚 did a lot of experimenting with things like unique vocal harmonies, layering eight different acoustic guitar parts in the chorus, and having two bass lines going back and forth at each other in the hook,鈥� he explained.

Nethercutt credits his experience in NCWU鈥檚 Music Production (MUP) program for preparing him to independently produce music at a professional level. He also expressed gratitude to Tony Sawyer, Assistant Professor of Music Production and Director of 301 North Records, who helped him develop key recording and mixing skills, as well as songwriting abilities through courses such as Music Theory and History of Popular Music.

鈥�I gained a lot of skill and experience in the MUP program at Wesleyan that allows me to be able to do it all myself instead of having to pay someone else to do it for me,鈥� said Nethercutt.

鈥淭hese Illustrations鈥� is Nethercutt鈥檚 second release under his stage name Kneethercute, a nickname stemming from a mispronunciation of his last name that has followed him since high school. He has also released music collaboratively under the name Camp Runaway.

Looking ahead, Nethercutt is currently working on his next musical project, expected later this summer, as well as a new YouTube channel titled 鈥淎 Human Adventure,鈥� which will document his life and music in an authentic and personal way.

Fans can follow Nethercutt on social media to stay updated on future releases.

NCWU congratulates Jackson Nethercutt on this exciting new release and proudly celebrates the continued achievements of its alumni in the music and production industries.

Inspired by personal life experiences, including navigating an abusive relationship, Quinn says she felt called to share her story as a message of hope for others facing hardship.

鈥淭his book came from my personal life experiences,鈥� Quinn shared. 鈥淚 felt led to share my story to bring hope, healing, and encouragement to others who may be in this situation and think there is no way out, feel broken, and/or overlooked.鈥�

Quinn described the writing process as both emotional and healing, requiring her to revisit painful moments while also reflecting on how far she has come.

鈥淭he writing process was both emotional and healing,鈥� she said. 鈥淚t required me to revisit painful moments, but it also allowed me to see how far God has brought me.鈥�

In addition to writing the book, Quinn also learned the publishing process firsthand鈥攖aking on formatting, designing her own cover, and navigating distribution. She credits the experience with strengthening her confidence not only as an author, but as an entrepreneur. Quinn said the moment she realized she wanted to become an author was when she understood her story had purpose beyond herself.

鈥淚 realized I wanted to become an author when I understood that my story was not just for me; it was meant to help others,鈥� she said.

Through her book, Quinn hopes readers recognize that healing is possible鈥攅ven in the most difficult circumstances.

鈥淚 want readers to know that no matter how broken their situation may seem, they are not beyond restoration,鈥� she said. 鈥淭here is healing, there is purpose, and there is still life after crisis.鈥�

Quinn also shared how her experience at NC Wesleyan has supported her growth as she balances academics and personal goals.

鈥淢y time at NCWU has strengthened my leadership skills, discipline, and confidence,鈥� she said. 鈥淭he program has helped me grow both personally and professionally, giving me the structure and encouragement needed to pursue my goals, including becoming a published author.鈥�

For students who may dream of writing or publishing a book, Quinn encourages them to begin now rather than waiting for the 鈥減erfect moment.鈥�

鈥淪tart writing and don鈥檛 wait,鈥� she said. 鈥淵our story matters, and someone needs to hear what you have to say. Stay consistent, be willing to learn the process step-by-step, and believe in your voice.鈥�

Quinn says her greatest accomplishment is having the courage to share her truth.

鈥淭his book represents healing, strength, and obedience to what I believe God placed in my heart to do,鈥� she said.

Her book, A Woman in Crisis Living on Broken Pieces, is available for purchase on Amazon and through her website at

At 麻豆原创 (NCWU), that sense of community is at the heart of the student experience. From the first campus visit to graduation and beyond, students are surrounded by mentors, faculty, and peers who are deeply invested in their success鈥攑ersonally and professionally.

For Dr. Caitlin Brabblerose 鈥�18, that support system proved transformative. A double major graduate in Biology and Environmental Science, Brabblerose recently reached a significant milestone: successfully defending her doctoral dissertation. Her journey is a testament to the power of personalized education and meaningful mentorship.

鈥淲esleyan provided me with such a unique undergraduate experience that prepared me in ways I never anticipated for graduate school,鈥� said Brabblerose.

Post-Undergrad Applied Learning Experience

After graduating in 2018, Brabblerose began her career as a Laboratory Technologist with , working in Genomics and Toxicology. She later pursued her Master of Science in Biology at the , eventually continuing into the Ph.D. program, where she spent more than five years studying the biological rhythms of intertidal organisms.

Her dissertation, Entrainment of Biological Rhythms in Fiddler Crab Embryos and Larvae, explored the complex internal clocks that guide these organisms, including circadian and circatidal rhythms. Through behavioral, molecular, and chemical research, her work contributes to a longstanding body of scientific knowledge dating back more than a century.

Reflection and Relationships

While her research is impressive, Brabblerose credits much of her success to the foundation built at Wesleyan. She explained that the small class sizes created high expectations, and her professors consistently pushed her to work harder and achieve more. The writing鈥慽ntensive courses prepared her for the reality that science involves communication as much as discovery.

She encourages students to take advantage of small class sizes and to get to know their professors, noting that they are the ones who will advocate for students, write recommendation letters, and continue to offer support long after graduation.

Her experience in the Taylor-Crocker Honors Program further mirrored the demands of graduate school, culminating in an undergraduate thesis defense that foreshadowed her doctoral journey.

That support came full circle when several of her former professors attended her dissertation defense鈥攁 moment Brabblerose describes as both meaningful and surreal. She shared that having the same professors who supported her honors thesis being present at her Ph.D. completion made the experience feel complete, as though everything had come full circle.

What’s next?

Now, as she looks ahead, Brabblerose plans to continue her journey in academia, pursuing postdoctoral opportunities with the long-term goal of becoming a principal investigator. She hopes to combine her passions for research, teaching, and outreach to inspire future generations. Caitlin’s goal is to give back to students the same way her professors gave and to share her story as a powerful reminder that success is not achieved alone鈥攊t is built through community, mentorship, and the willingness to embrace every step of the journey.

At NCWU, that journey doesn鈥檛 end at graduation. It continues to be shaped by relationships, fueled by opportunity, and celebrated through the accomplishments of its alumni.

Recently, two pre-service teachers in the program 鈥� Kathlene 鈥淏rooke鈥� Rose and Kayden Comerford 鈥� shared their experiences studying Elementary Education at Wesleyan and reflected on how the University is helping prepare them for their future careers as licensed teachers.

Rose, a native of Nash County who recently transferred from East Carolina University, says she quickly found a sense of belonging on campus.

鈥淲esleyan feels like home,鈥� Rose shared. 鈥淭here is nowhere I would rather be as I learn to become a practicing licensed teacher.鈥�

Comerford, who is originally from Apex, North Carolina and previously lived in Loudoun County, Virginia, emphasized the supportive learning environment that defines the Wesleyan community.

鈥淲esleyan is a tightknit community where I feel that all parties want the other to succeed,鈥� said Comerford.

According to Dr. Kelvin Spragley, Director of Teacher Education at NCWU, the program is designed to equip students with both the academic foundation and hands-on classroom experience needed to succeed as educators.

鈥淧reparing effective teachers requires more than coursework,鈥� said Spragley. 鈥淥ur students engage in meaningful field experiences and mentorship opportunities that allow them to build confidence, develop instructional skills, and understand the real needs of today鈥檚 classrooms.鈥�

Wesleyan鈥檚 Teacher Education program prepares students for licensure in elementary education while emphasizing leadership, service, and community engagement. Through close faculty mentorship and partnerships with local schools, students graduate ready to step into classrooms and make a difference in the lives of their students.

As future educators like Rose and Comerford continue their journeys, Wesleyan remains committed to supporting students who feel called to teach and inspire the next generation.

NC Wesleyan student Brooklynn Covic, a communications major and member of the Bishops Volleyball team, gained hands-on experience this past summer as a Creative Video Intern with the the High-A affiliate of the Pittsburgh Pirates. Covic鈥檚 internship was guided by Callie Cline, a North Carolina Wesleyan alumna and the Grasshoppers鈥� Manager of Social Media and Media Services.

Covic鈥檚 journey began on campus, where she works as a student assistant with NC Wesleyan Athletics, creating social media content and graphics to promote Bishop athletic programs. That foundational experience helped prepare her for the professional sports environment she now navigates daily.

鈥淚 really hope to bring these skills back to our athletic department to continue capturing and celebrating our student-athletes,鈥� Covic said. 鈥淭his internship has allowed me to grow creatively and professionally while seeing how the skills I鈥檝e learned at NC Wesleyan translate to the real world.鈥�

For Cline, the opportunity to mentor a current Bishop is both personal and purposeful. As a former NC Wesleyan volleyball student-athlete and multimedia intern, she understands the impact early professional experience can have on a student鈥檚 career trajectory.

鈥淚 wish I would have started sooner and prioritized internships and experience earlier,鈥� Cline said. 鈥淏eing able to give back and help a current student see what鈥檚 possible is incredibly rewarding. NC Wesleyan helped lay the foundation for my career, and it鈥檚 exciting to be part of that process for someone else.鈥�

This internship reflects NC Wesleyan鈥檚 commitment to hands-on learning, career readiness, and fostering meaningful alumni connections. By creating opportunities that extend beyond the classroom, the university continues to prepare students for success in competitive professional fields.

鈥淭hese gifts were not just scholarships; they were lifelines,鈥� said Katie Farrell, Dean of Adult and Professional Studies. 鈥淭hey met students where they were and provided exactly what was needed at exactly the right time.鈥�

Turning Deferred Dreams into Degrees

The immediate outcomes of the Angel Donor initiative are powerful and measurable:

• A Healthcare Administration student described the support as 鈥淗eaven-sent,鈥� allowing her to complete the final course needed to graduate in May 2026.
• Multiple Educational Studies and Leadership students were able to overcome financial barriers. This funding not only prevented delays but also accelerated degree completion and career trajectories, allowing future educators to enter the classroom sooner, helping address critical workforce gaps in education across the region.

Stability During Life鈥檚 Hardest Moments

Some stories speak not only to academic persistence, but to human resilience:

• A Leadership student, also a retired grandmother, unexpectedly assumed custody of three grandchildren and experienced temporary homelessness. She used the funds to secure housing, cover tuition, meet basic needs, and create a modest holiday for her family.
• A Criminal Justice student experiencing homelessness was able to remain enrolled and complete her final credits.
• A police officer finishing a Criminal Justice degree received support during the loss of his father.
• A Leadership student, a recently elected Town Commissioner recovering from a massive stroke, was able to continue his education while focusing on recovery and community service.

While this summary highlights selected stories shared with permission, additional funds continue to be distributed to other deserving students whose privacy is being respectfully protected.

A Season of Hope

The Angel Donor initiative affirms NC Wesleyan鈥檚 unwavering commitment to adult learners, students who balance education with work, family, and life鈥檚 unexpected challenges. Through strategic, compassionate support, the University is proving that persistence paired with opportunity can change lives.

As the holiday season approaches, these gifts stand as a reminder that generosity can be transformational, not someday, but today.

NC Wesleyan extends its deepest gratitude to the Angel Donors whose belief in students made these life-altering moments possible.
