degree, I just did not know what to major in. I knew being a student athlete would be difficult, I just did not realize how difficult it really is. My entire high school career I heard how stressful, time consuming, and expensive college was but I did not realize how true that was until I got on campus.

Student athletes typically work hard for their sports and on their grades. The only way student athletes can stay ahead of their busy schedule is by working ahead of time. Many student athletes pick up positive character traits throughout their sports career such as being mentally tough. Student athletes must learn to be prepared for all of the challenges they may face. Participating in a sport is more than just using skills to reach a goal on a field or a court.
