Regen McGee gets Southern Miss nomination for NCAA Woman of the Year Award

Late in her senior year at Pass Christian High School, Regen McGee didn't even know she was going to be a collegiate athlete.

At the time, Regen's sister, Devin, was a soccer player at Southern Miss. While Regen planned to attend Southern Miss, she was just going to be a student.

Regen had no interest in a potential track scholarship offer from the Golden Eagles. Devin made a promise to Regen that if she accepted the offer, Devin would switch to track instead of playing soccer her senior year.

No switch was ever needed. Devin played soccer and Regen joined the track team at Southern Miss.
