Saleem on Vargo: Karah's eagerness to learn and be part of a team is contagious. She has a positive outlook on the world and understands the commitment needed for growth. I am looking forward to her team spirit and the passion she shows for Ball State. She has a "go-getter" personality type that isn't afraid to try new things. She is going to develop and grow in the team environment, and I can't wait for her to be part of that process here in Muncie. She is a well-rounded individual that will bring depth and unique skills to our program.
