Gibson Lands on SEC Community Service Team

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark – For the second-straight year, senior infielder Danielle Gibson has been named to the SEC Softball Community Service Team, the conference announced Tuesday.

The SEC sponsors Community Service Teams for all 21 league sponsored sports. The Community Service Team looks to highlight an athlete from each school who gives back to their community in superior service efforts.

A dynamic leader at first base, Gibson also exemplifies her natural leadership skills within the local community. The Murrieta, Calif., native participates with Miracle League regularly. She also assists with Healthy Hogs Call by traveling to local elementary schools to discuss the importance of healthy eating and exercise. In October, Gibson made goodie bags and wrote “Thank You” letters to first responders. Volunteering with local missionaries, Gibson helps cook meals, including holiday dinners, and volunteers with her church to teach boys ages 8-12 about life skills. Gibson and the Razorbacks volunteer with the Northwest Arkansas Food Bank and read to students at local schools. Gibson was also heavily involved with “Shopping with the Razorbacks Money Donation”, where she fundraised and collected money for children to shop for Christmas presents.

Gibson and the Hogs travel to the Sunshine State for the 2022 SEC Tournament at Katie Seashole Pressly Stadium in Gainesville, Fla. Arkansas, the No. 1 overall seed, will open the tournament at 6:30 p.m. Thursday against the winner of Georgia/Ole Miss. The game will be broadcast on SEC Network.
