natural talent. With little work, I could coast and still outclass the majority of my teammates. That is, I could until I was pushed onto varsity as a sophomore. Instead of getting the steady playing time I expected, I was only permitted to enter the game when things got out out hand.

Even though it’s not first, we did so well and I was, and really still am, so proud of my team and that I was able to be part of such a great…
