WEST POINT, MS – -(Ammoland.com)- Mossy Oak is proud to award Rachel Hollingsworth with the 2017 Dr. James Earl Kennemer Academic Scholarship in the amount of $10,000.

“Receiving this scholarship is a dream come true for me,” said Hollingsworth. As a life-long outdoorswoman, it is an honor and a blessing to receive this award from Mossy Oak and the NWTF as I will use the funds to further my education and accomplish my academic and professional goals.”

Hollingsworth, originally from Jacksonville, Alabama, is currently a sophomore at Auburn University. She is currently enrolled in the College of Animal Sciences with a focus in pharmaceuticals. Hollingsworth proudly serves as a member of the Auburn NWTF chapter, Alpha Epsilon Delta, a pre-health honors society and Gamma Beta Phi, a national honors and service society.

Her long-term plan is to work in a compounding pharmacy where Hollingsworth hopes to analyze various pharmaceutical drugs and their specific traits and qualities.

To become a candidate for Mossy Oak’s NWTF National Scholarship, Hollingsworth submitted an essay that won her local Choccolocco Valley Longbeards Chapter Scholarship in addition to the Alabama state NWTF Chapter Scholarship.
