Meet Boone Hosey: A Student with a Vision for the Future

Boone Hosey HeadshotFor Jason Hosey, Tallahassee State College is more than just a place to earn a degree—it’s a place to grow and build a future. Known to friends and teammates as '’Boone'’, he’s found a supportive community that nurtures his ambitions and helps him succeed both inside and outside the classroom.

Raised in Tallahassee, Florida, Boone chose TSC because it was the perfect fit in every way – academically, athletically, and financially. The strong support system he found on campus has given him a place to thrive. “The professors genuinely care about every student they have”, said Hosey, “when I was in high school, my teachers would often suggest that college professors would be strict and less accommodating. Every professor that I have had TSC has proven that claim wrong.”

As a dedicated member of the TSC baseball team and a recipient of the DeLopez Baseball Scholarship, Boone is deeply thankful for the support he has received. His scholarship has lifted the financial burden of college, giving him the freedom to focus wholeheartedly on his Exercise Science degree without having to worry about the cost of tuition and textbooks. Boone reflects, “It’s taken a huge weight off my shoulders. Now I can use my earnings to cover essentials like groceries, which has taught me responsibility and independence.”

In the future, Boone plans to use his degree to help young athletes achieve their full potential, whether it be as an athletic trainer, a strength and conditioning coach, or by opening his own athletic training facility to support the next generation of young athletes.

For students like Boone, Tallahassee State College is more than just a place to learn—it’s a community where they grow, connect, and thrive. Your support is what makes this possible, helping students build the foundation they need for success, both academically and in life. With your generosity, you can help transform lives and create a lasting impact for students who are ready to reach their full potential.
