Moderated by ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the event will feature All-Pro quarterback and Super Bowl XLIV MVP Drew Brees; Stanley Cup Champion and former New York Ranger Mike Richter; World Cup- and Olympic Gold Medal-winning goalkeeper Briana Scurry; Two-time Super Bowl Champion Carl Banks and Dr. Mark Lovell, neuropsychologist and CEO of ImPACT Applications, Inc., which partnered with Dick's for PACE.
