I believe basketball has taught me many valuable life lessons, and perhaps more importantly, played a significant role in developing me into the successful student and individual I am today by growing accustomed to challenging myself and able to take lessons learned on the court into other areas of my life. I loved competing, the adrenaline of playing in a game, and the energy it allows me to extend my boundaries of discovery, especially when faced with challenges in and out of the classroom. I simply put loved the game. There’s this feeling I get when I’m on the court – quiet, calm, serene, refreshed. My world is small and in the now.
