A short sprinter that will also battle to be the best 4x4 leg they can be is a true blessing to any program.

Athletes, do not talk to me if you're just trying to make a post about our team offering you a spot. I dont care for all that. If you not serious about DU, take all of that somewhere else. Respectfully

As a coach, I've learned that one of the best things I could do for my athletes is to simply ask them "how are you doing?" the little things go a long way.

Athletic scholarships dont wait on you. Money is not an unlimited resource. Dragging your feet all year only raises the chances of you leaving money on the table. You running that time in may is not a given. If you have a good opportunity, do not waste it. Go where you're wanted!

Being a Talented athlete means nothing if you're not coachable, are lazy, aren't supportive of teammates, and are selfish. Talent will only get you so far. You also have to be a good person. Don't get it twisted

It is a brutal sight to see high school athletes grind and do all this amazing work to compete at a higher level, only to get there and lose all that fire and passion. The job isnt over, it's just begun. The work you put in during highschool should be x10 in college.

When deciding on school, ask yourself what type of experience you want, what kind of team you want, what kind of coach, and will you be able to develop not only as an athlete, but a person as well. Athletes come and go. Character will always stay.

Athletes, you do not need to know what you want to do with the rest of your life before you get to college. You don't need to have everything figured out, despite what you may have heard. Is it nice to have interest,yes, but it is perfectly ok to come in and get a feel for things
