Myron Rolle: A gifted athlete, scholar and philanthropist

A talented athlete with a gifted mind, Myron Rolle never ceases to amaze those who believe it impossible to excel in both sports and academics. In fact, Myron’s lifetime accomplishments defy nearly all athletic stereotypes.
During his younger years, he attended the Hun School of Princeton, a prestigious college preparatory school in New Jersey, where in addition to shining on the football field, he maintained a 4.0 grade point average and accumulated 21 advanced placement (AP) credits prior to his enrollment at Florida State University.

Beyond the classroom, Myron played saxophone in the high school band, served as sports editor of the school newspaper and starred in the lead role in his high school’s production of Fiddler on the Roof.
Aspiring to both the NFL and medical school, Myron entered Florida State University in 2006, where he became a three-year starter as a safety for the Seminoles football team. He completed all necessary pre-medical requirements and earned a Bachelor of Arts in Exercise Science in just two and a half years, all while maintaining a 3.75 grade point average.
