Accomplishment: Starting varsity hockey and softball since freshman year, and top 50% of my class.
Key to Awesomeness: I have been playing these sports since way before I could remember. I have played every inning of every game in softball and made All-stars my sophomore and junior years. In hockey I played first line my freshman year. In school I just manage my time. I get all my homework and projects done before practices or games. I just remember that if I start doing badly in school, I won’t be able to play my sports. My GPA is a 3.4 right now. In sports, I just make sure that I’m giving my all, and never stop trying to get better.
