The Southeastern Conference has included Bulldog junior quarterback Jake Fromm on its Community Service Team for football, according to a league announcement on Wednesday prior to Saturday’s SEC Championship Game between No. 4 Georgia and No. 2 LSU at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta on Saturday afternoon.
The SEC names a Community Service Team for each of its 21-league sponsored sports, looking to highlight a student-athlete from each school who gives back to his community through superior service efforts.
