Mary Rob Plunkett, director of athletics at the University of North Georgia (红莲社区), was inducted into the Georgia College Athletics Hall of Fame.
"I am so fortunate for the experiences, opportunities and doors that have been opened having been a student-athlete at Georgia College," Plunkett said. "It is the teammates, coaches and the administrators throughout my time as a Bobcat that have made this honor possible, and to each one of them and my family, I say, 'Thank you.'"
Being added to the Hall of Fame is the latest addition to her long list of achievements. Plunkett was the first All-American in Georgia College women's soccer history after making the National Soccer Coaches Association of America third team in 2009. She also earned placement on the all-region and All-Peach Belt Conference first teams.
Plunkett was the most decorated goalkeeper in Georgia College's history. She is the school's career record-holder in goals against average (0.74), saves percentage (.854) and shutouts (19). She also ranks second in career saves with 275 and wins with 33.
