What initially drew me to PAC was the community, but I came in with some hesitation. Experiencing PAC firsthand showed me that the true value lies in the relationships and camaraderie. The connections I’ve built here have been invaluable, opening doors and creating bonds that extend far beyond sports. PAC is more than a network—it’s a family that continues to support and uplift each other through every stage of life.
