Collin Kemper is back in Boston, getting Fenway Park in shape for the upcoming World Series.  The Southeast Tech student loves his job of being outdoors and tending the field; he credits his grandfather for taking him hunting, fishing, and hiking. The love of the land has him earning a triple major in Sports Turf, Landscape Design, and Horticulture at Southeast.  As a member of the Red Sox Groundskeeping Crew, Collin could be sporting a World Series ring IF the Red Sox would win the title.  We’ll have to wait and see!!  What an exciting assignment and great opportunity for Collin.
