My name is Shondell Vickers, a small town kid from Waycross, Georgia! My collegiate career began in 2018 as a Juco kid. Fast forward, I began apart of Georgia southern womens basketball in 2020 after taking off a year to welcome my inspiration, my daughter Za’Nova Vickers. After battling post-partum depression, I didn’t finish the year how I wanted and ended up walking away from athletics. In modern day, I’m currently a walk on here at Georgia Southern trying to make a positive name for myself & earn back my respect that was lost during my mental health battle. I’m a huge mental health advocate, I realized taking care of self is most important. This is my senior year, im set to graduate with my bachelors of psychology spring ‘23 with gods grace and mercy. I hope my story soon inspire those who’ve battled with mental illness or who hasn’t had an easy road!
