“Too often, brilliant athletes reach the end of their collegiate journey only to realize they’ve spent four years following a path rather than shaping one. At the CKA PGA, we turn transition-ready competitors into ‘Sophomore-Ready’ CEOs of their own brands.”
— Dr. Keith Adams, Ed.D., CMAA | 2026 Drake Group Education Fund Exceptional Service Award Recipient
