U Alaska Features Two LDS Basketball Players
ANCHORAGE, ALASKA -- The University of Alaska at Anchorage has two
LDS players on its NCAA Division II basketball team, observes
Meridian Magazine's Kelly Martinez. Martinez interviewed the
teammates, Ty Shippen and Bryson Vaughn, about how they fit in with
the team and how they integrate their religion in their lives in
Alaska. Both are married, and Bryson is a returned missionary.
Shippen once played for BYU, but didn't get much playing time. Bryson
was on the Ricks College team, and transferred to the University of
Alaska.
