KKoby Griffin '22 Recruiting Profile

When I was younger I did not have the best body, I had ADHD and my parents before made me take medicine which would prevent me from wanting to eat and nearly prevent growth, I was very skinny and short at the time until my father gave me the decision to finally move with my mother. Which I immediately said yes to. When I moved with my mom I asked my mom if I can stop taking the medication and her exact words were, "You don't need medicine to make you stand still, pay attention, and make you act like a completely different person, I want you to be who you are". From then on I have not taken that medication since then. At that time I was in 7th grade at 5'1 weighing about 110 pounds and I gradually grew quickly by the time I was in a Freshman I reached 5'10 and over the years I reached 6'4 and now weighing in at about 205 to about 210. From my story my motivation is not not give up on the opportunity that was given to me at hand, I want to try my best at absolutely everything before it is too late, I love what I do and I do what I love, and forever I will stand by that.
