Read about Athletic Service Coordinators, Bob and Cindy Wakefield
It’s not easy for Bob and Cindy Wakefield to walk through the Student Athlete Building at BYU without stopping for at least ten conversations. Whether it’s catching up with friends, talking to co-workers about special projects, or lovingly “begging,” as Cindy calls it, for athletes to do service, the Wakefields have become a staple in BYU’s athletic department.
