About Me

Hello! My name is Grace Stetler, and I am a Junior at Elon University, located in Elon, North Carolina. I am originally from Doylestown, Pennsylvania, where I attended Gwynedd Mercy Academy High School. Now in my third year at Elon, I am pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism, with a double minor in Sport Management and Leadership Studies.

My Story

Growing up an hour north of Philadelphia, everyone assumes, "Fly Eagles Fly," was the fight song playing throughout the Stetler household on fall Sunday afternoons. Rather, from a young age, I was taught to cheer for the men in black and gold, and from that moment on, I grew up a die-hard Pittsburgh Steelers fan. Being a Steelers fan in a "Philly neighborhood," taught me how to know my facts, and stand my ground. I was the girl who wore black and gold on a day dedicated to "wearing your Eagles green,"and I found my passion from a young age.

 

While attending an all-girls private Catholic high school, my love of sports grew and the beginning of my sports broadcasting career took off. I created and launched a sports show titled, "Sports Center with Stetler," in which I wrote, produced, and broadcasted a weekly half hour show where I updated my peers on on news from the sports world and our school athletics. My goal for this program was to bridge the gap between women and sports—through education and entertainment—while building an engaged community for our high school teams.

 

After graduating, I chose to attend Elon University, where I could immerse myself in a center of broadcast excellence and pursue my love of sports and journalism. I currently serve as the producer of "Inside the Nest," an ESPN-style show, in which my team and I cover stories around campus highlighting athletes and fanbases. I also serve as a color commentator for Elon Division I Athletics, including baseball, basketball, lacrosse, soccer, softball and volleyball, through Flo Sports. In addition, I was chosen to serve as a student color commentator for Elon football, through the Learfield Radio and the Varsity Network App.

 

I am grateful for the opportunity to learn from peers and industry experts at Elon. While striving toward a professional career, I am inspired to keep my passion close to my heart, and fulfill the dreams of the little girl who simply fell in love with the game of football.
