Who's been the biggest influence on my sports career and why?: |
My Dad has been the biggest influence on my sports and academic career. Dad was a top wrestler in high school in New York who wrestled at Penn State. My Dad has been very supportive of all my athletic endeavors and has allowed me to find "my" sport just like he had found his. He has provided me with great insights about the importance of balancing my love of lacrosse with my academic pursuits and community service. He has taught me how to discipline and prioritize my life, all things which will benefit me throughout my life. |
