Nine Troy Student-Athletes Receive Degrees Friday

TROY, Ala. – Troy student-athletes were well represented at Troy University's Summer Commencement Exercises held Friday in Trojan Arena; nine Troy student-athletes from five different programs had their degrees conferred.

Troy's nine student-athletes joined some 520 students who received degrees Friday. Graduates represented 24 U.S. states and territories and eight countries outside the United States.

Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall provided the keynote address at Friday's commencement exercises. Marshall is the state's 48th attorney general, having been appointed to the position in 2017 by then-Gov. Robert Bentley. Prior to his appointment, he served as Marshall County District Attorney since 2001.

As attorney general, Marshall has embraced his role as the state's chief law-enforcement officer and has committed himself to making Alabama a safer place to live. In Jan. 2018, Marshall launched the Initiative on Violent Crime with the mission to "help cities reclaim their streets, restore the rule of law, and . . . see their communities revived." Since its launch, the initiative has resulted in the arrests of hundreds of violent offenders.
