Kate Du Mez is currently a senior at Dordt College in Sioux Center and in her time at Dordt has excelled on not only the soccer field where she is one of the top players in the Great Plains Athletic Conference but also the basketball court. Managing one sport is a full time task for most college students, but for Du Mez she has handled two with relative ease. Now we’ll find out how. Here is A Day in the Life of Kate Du Mez…
