Elijah was Connor's roommate at Lee University, and quickly became his best friend. They've been on many adventures and trips together; from Bryson City, North Carolina, all the way to Moab, Utah. No matter where Elijah is and what is going on, he knows how to light up a room and make people feel loved and welcome. One thing Connor admires so greatly about Elijah is his intentionality and integrity. Connor will never forget flying through the trails of Chicken Crossings in Moab with Elijah.

Collin is one of Connors best college friends, and one off the smartest people Connor has ever known. Collin worked so hard to get three degrees in one go, and did it! He got his Bachelors in Engineering Science, Bachelors in Mechanical Engineering, and his Masters in Mechanical Engineering, all while maintaining friendships and getting amazing grades. He is a walking legend, and always knows what to say and when to say it. Connor and Collin saw Lynyrd Skynyrd in 2018 in Atlanta, and were at least 45 years younger than everyone else in the crowd, but they wouldn't trade it for anything. Anyone you see Free Bird live with, is a friend forever.
