Gwen Lloyd, an Administrative Coordinator in Duke Student Affairs, served as the Employee Captain for the game in 2023. As a lifelong Duke fan, Lloyd said she was thrilled to experience the game day excitement up close.
“It meant a lot,” said Lloyd, who’s worked at Duke for 43 years. “It’s nice to be recognized. When you work at a place for many years, you learn a lot. You grow and develop. You build a real connection. So I’m proud of where I work.”
