Melinda Pregont '09

In this episode of The Always a Raven podcast, host Janelle Menz sits down with Melinda Pregont ’09—former Lady Raven basketball player, healthcare leader, and owner of Trusted Care, a holistic wellness clinic. Melinda’s Benedictine journey began with a life-changing community scholarship that brought her to campus and kept her rooted in Atchison. On the court, she learned humility, resilience, and the value of hard work. Off the court, she balanced a biology major, Spanish minor, and a year-round athletic schedule. Today, Melinda leads a multidisciplinary health practice focused on women’s wellness, blending chiropractic care with mental health services, massage therapy, and more. She credits the Benedictine community and the relationships it fostered with shaping her life, career, and commitment to giving back.
