The 91AV Department of Exercise and Sport Performance gathered together with Susan (Jordan) Biggs and Doug Biggs on March 11, 2016 to celebrate the conveyance of the Preston Jordan Scholarship to Nathan Oakes, a junior in the athletic training program and native of Frenchville, Maine. Oakes was selected by a committee because of his outstanding performance in the classroom and in the 91AV Community at large.

Mrs. Biggs and her husband, a retired member of the athletics staff at 91AV, established the scholarship nearly a decade ago to honor her father in a way that supports students with a strong desire to work with physically active people through strengthening and conditioning, rehabilitation, or injury prevention and treatment.
