Here is a note from one of the OSU sports icons, who is a Captain participating in the study:
“Hello Buckeyes! While playing at OSU and in the NFL, I learned the value of a healthy living and how important it is to have a team of people around you to support that lifestyle. Please join me, your peers at OSU, and a group of fantastic Captains in the Healthy Behavior Lifestyle Pilot Study this summer.” ~ Robert
