Her work ethic, attention to detail and positive attitude continues to be a great fit for the Gators and I look forward to helping her continue her growth in this profession.”
Brewer joined the Gators in 2021 as the program’s film intern.

In addition, she assisted the coaching staff with scout for all opposing team pitchers that the team would face throughout the season and oversaw the implementation of technology during practice and film sessions.
