Games begin for Rhodes

Alexis Rhodes on the podium with the other winners.The Commonwealth Games cycling team has just been announced and congratulations must go to those who made the team – including three riders from Team UniSA-Australia in this year’s Tour Down Under – Chris Jongerwaard, Matt Hayman and Ben Day. But special good wishes go to UniSA podiatry student, Alexis Rhodes  who has made a most tenacious and amazing recovery from the terrible injuries she received in the same accident that took the life of Amy Gillet last year (also a student at UniSA). Her selection will probably come as no surprise to staff and students who know and work with Rhodes – they say she is an amazingly strong person. The whole University community wishes her every success in the Games.
