2/26/2026 12:30:00 PM | Women's Soccer, Women's Golf, Student-Athlete Center for Excellence
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – North Florida Women's Golf redshirt junior Kaitlyn Schroeder and North Florida Women's Soccer redshirt junior Allie Fekany have been selected to participate in the 2026 NCAA Legacy Lab, a multi-day entrepreneurship program hosted by the NCAA from February 26 through March 1 in Indianapolis, Ind.
Â
The Legacy Lab is designed to help Division I sophomore and junior student-athletes explore entrepreneurship and develop their personal brands, while still competing at the collegiate level. Participants engage in hands-on learning sessions, mentorship opportunities and collaborative workshops focused on building long-term professional success.
Â
During the event, the pair of Ospreys will select from three educational tracks: a name, image and likeness (NIL) track focused on responsible monetization strategies, a business fundamentals track centered on starting and scaling a venture, and a social impact track designed to help student-athletes build purpose-driven enterprises.
Â
A 2025 First Team All-ASUN selection, Schroeder most recently earned a top-15 finish at the UNF Collegiate on Feb. 23-24. She also tied her best individual placement this season with a runner-up finish at the Boilermaker Classic on Sept. 1-2 and the Evie Odom Invitational on Oct. 16-18. She has earned four top-15 finishes, and has carded her best 18-hole and 54-hole scores of her career this season.Â
A 2025 Second Team All-ASUN selection, Fekany appeared in all 22 contests with 11 starts and logged 881 minutes for North Florida last season. Fekany tallied six goals and an assist for 13 points, in addition to 20 shots and 16 shots on goal for a .800 shot on goal percentage. She notched first collegiate brace against West Georgia on Sept. 18 and the game-winning goal against Eastern Kentucky in the ASUN Championship Quarterfinals on Oct. 30.Â
Â
Through immersive programming, Fekany and Schroeder will translate the discipline, leadership and work ethic that have made both of All-ASUN honorees for North Florida into practical business and branding skills to leave the event with the skills to excel in life beyond athletics. The selection reflects their continued commitment to maximizing opportunities both on and off the field while at North Florida.
