Chad Fanning '16 Recruiting Profile

        I have an old saying, once a job begun never leave until it's done. When I commit to something no matter how hard it becomes, I always persevere and will fully commit myself.

           For two seasons in Pop Warner, my team lost every game but one.   Regardless, football is the sport I live and breath for, so I did not quit or switch teams.  I worked harder and harder every day and I stuck through the heartbreak and the losing, and it finally  paid off.  I learned that with hard work, anything could be accomplished. Then came freshman football and that was the first time i did not have a starting position in my whole life. Quitting was not an option for me, so I just worked out in the gym and played harder at practice to show the coaches what I could do. After the second game I was not only starting, but I became the leader of the defense. 

        My belief is that I should face life head on . I have learned that through hard work and dedication, I can accomplish anything I set my mind on.
