TROY, Alabama – Troy University held its 2015 Fall Commencement ceremonies in Trojan Arena on Friday and 19 current and former Troy student-athletes were among the some 400 students who received their degrees.

The Troy graduating class had representation from 28 U.S. states, one territory and 16 other nations. Troy's 19 student-athletes represented 10 different sports.

Former lieutenant governor and nationally prominent trial lawyer Jere Beasley provided the commencement address.
