It shouldn\u2019t be a surprise if Maggie Shaw runs across the McKenzie Arena stage during University of Tennessee at Chattanooga commencement ceremonies.<\/p>\n

Shaw, who will receive a bachelor\u2019s degree in nursing on Saturday, Dec. 17, has spent plenty of time running as a defender on the UTC soccer team since coming to Chattanooga in 2018.<\/p>\n

A native of Columbia, South Carolina, she played in a program-record 85 matches for the Mocs\u2014logging nearly 7,700 minutes on the pitch\u2014and was a three-time all-Southern Conference first-team selection and a two-time SoCon Defensive Player of the Year.<\/p>\n

This fall, she helped lead the team to its first-ever regular-season conference title. She did that while literally running back and forth between soccer activities and the rigors of being a nursing student.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had class from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.,\u201d she said of her final semester Thursdays, \u201cand I would leave practice 30 minutes early and run to the nursing building.\u201d<\/p>\n

Majoring in nursing is particularly grueling for student-athletes.<\/p>\n

Tessa Mullinax-Baker, the Mary B. Jackson clinical assistant professor in the School of Nursing, said there have only been a few student-athletes going through that program since she joined the UTC faculty in 2012.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think about her early mornings and really late nights and the sacrifices she had to make in finding that balance,\u201d Mullinax-Baker said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile most students struggle to get to class on time, Maggie has already been to a workout that morning. After a win, Maggie would have to go home to study instead of celebrating with her team because she had a big test that next day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gavin McKinney, the UTC soccer head coach since 2014, said Shaw is only the second nursing student he\u2019s coached.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know there\u2019s a lot of programs in the country that would deter student-athletes from taking nursing, but I\u2019m the complete opposite. I\u2019ll support these ladies in whatever they want to study. They just have to be able to manage it correctly,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaggie\u2019s shown you can study anything while still accomplishing pretty big things in your athletic field.\u201d<\/p>\n

McKinney talked about an overall team effort between athletics and nursing, saying that he met with nursing personnel to ensure that both sides understood the demands of Shaw\u2019s schedule.<\/p>\n

Soccer meant practices, games and travel. Nursing meant clinicals and simulations. There\u2019s no wiggle room with either.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn days Maggie was doing 12-hour shifts in the hospital, she was expected to get a workout in with us,\u201d McKinney said, \u201cor maybe she did an early morning training session that we had before she went on her day with the nursing work. It takes time management, dedication, focus, you name it, to be able to do both of those\u2014and she did it at a high level.<\/p>\n

\u201cLook, if you want to do what Maggie\u2019s done on the field\u2014being an all-conference player and Southern Conference Defensive Player of the Year\u2014that takes an amazing amount of dedication and focus. Just the same, to be able to get through the nursing program, you can\u2019t slack in any way, shape or form.\u201d<\/p>\n

The athletic portion of Shaw\u2019s DNA is easy to explain. Her father, David, appeared in 769 National Hockey League games from 1982 to 1998. Her mother, Trish Little, was a volleyball player at the University of South Carolina. Her older sisters, Jamie and Danielle, played soccer at Lander University in Greenwood, South Carolina.<\/p>\n

And most of her Mocs soccer play career occurred alongside her fraternal twin, Samantha, who received a bachelor\u2019s degree in health and human performance in May 2022.<\/p>\n

The nursing profession, though, does not share similar family bloodlines.<\/p>\n

\u201cGrowing up, my mom was always saying to us, \u2018If I could go back and do one thing, it\u2019d be nursing,\u2019\u201d Shaw said with a laugh. \u201cHonestly, we didn\u2019t have any healthcare workers in my family.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom my perspective, nursing seemed like a job with multiple options. If you don\u2019t want one part of nursing, there are always 10 other options. I thought that being on my feet all day in the nursing world would transfer over so well from being a student-athlete, and the more I looked into it, nursing was something I wanted to get into.\u201d<\/p>\n

As McKinney said, \u201cThe student-athlete part is extremely difficult, but I think it prepares them for life. Maggie should be more than prepared for it because she just went through an extremely difficult, rigorous education with the nursing program while being a high achiever on the pitch.\u201d<\/p>\n

Shaw did acknowledge that the soccer\/nursing combination caused her to miss out on certain aspects of the college experience.<\/p>\n

\u201cDefinitely. I do feel like I missed out on a lot,\u201d she said. \u201cI have friends who will be doing something like going to a basketball game or just some event, and it\u2019s \u2018FOMO\u2019\u2014fear of missing out. But at the end of the day, sometimes you\u2019re just so exhausted and you need your sleep.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou always remind yourself, \u2018I\u2019m doing this because I want to do this. It\u2019s going to be worth it. Even if you\u2019re missing out now, you\u2019re setting yourself up for success in the future.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

After missing out on plenty of student activities, who can blame her if she is enthusiastic upon hearing her name called at commencement?<\/p>\n

\u201cBeing in the nursing field, you\u2019re in the same class with the same students for the past two years and I\u2019ve developed really good relationships with these people,\u201d Shaw said. \u201cWe all wanted to be in the nursing program so bad\u2014especially at UTC because it\u2019s so competitive\u2014so finally getting to walk across the stage will be a huge relief.<\/p>\n

\u201cI did that. I accomplished that. That\u2019s why I think I\u2019m going to run across the stage. I\u2019m going to be that excited.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
