The Lemon Trophy Champion – Mark Gronowski Join us for an unforgettable interview with Mark Gronowski, winner of the prestigious 2024-2025 Lemon Trophy, awarded to the top FCS athlete who raised the most money in the fight against childhood cancer. Representing South Dakota State University, Mark rallied the incredible support of #JackrabbitNation, raising over $30,000 for Northwestern Mutual and Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation. From the field to the fundraising front, Mark proved why he’s not just an exceptional athlete but also a compassionate leader. 🏆💛 Alongside Mark is Chris Schenkel, Managing Partner at Northwestern Mutual Sioux Falls, the visionary behind this initiative for the past two years. Together, they discuss the power of community, the passion that fueled their efforts, and the difference this campaign has made for families battling childhood cancer. We also reflect on Mark’s legendary career ... 10,330 passing yards, 1,767 rushing yards, and 130 touchdowns, and his transition to Iowa City, where he’ll take the field as an Iowa Hawkeye. Mark shares his heartfelt farewell to #JackrabbitNation and his "WHY" for continuing to champion this cause, proving that his impact goes far beyond football.
