Taylor Rooks gets married.





Lou Brock relation (great niece)


“I tell people that all the time,” she says of her upbringing. “I owe my love of sports to two things – that’s my family and being from the south; because in a place like Georgia, you are living, breathing and eating it.” Her father, Thomas, set the rushing record at Taylor’s alma mater, the University of Illinois. She is also the niece of both baseball Hall of Famer Lou Brock, and former NFL player Marv Woodson. While the heavy presence of athletics may have inspired many to pursue it as their profession, Rooks decided to take a different route.
