"All of the people that have invested their heart and souls, talents and resources to make the goal of fully endowing the Julie Geis Memorial Scholarship are the real heroes and reason for this success. Words cannot adequately express the love, affection and gratitude that the Nebraska Softball family has for the Geis family, the volunteers, friends of Julie and the devoted golfers. This has been a very special journey that began out of tragedy and sadness and culminated into a celebration and the growth of wonderful friendships and memories.
"We all know that Julie is very proud."
Geis, a four-year letterwinner for the Husker softball team from 1976 to 1979 was killed in the World Trade Center attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. The scholarship, which is awarded annually to a current member of the Nebraska softball team, was created in her memory.
