About Me
My passion for sports
I have grown up playing sports basically my entire life. I started playing basketball at the age of 3 and continued all throughout my life.
My two older brother both played sports in college which pursued me to want to follow them until injuries took that away.
I competed in the state tournament for basketball 2 years in a row.
A problem I have faced
Throughout my years of sports I have faced many ups and downs. The biggest down being all of my injuries. Before my junior season I suffered a knee injury requiring surgery. This injury sidelined me for about 3 months and than I was back. Following my surgery, I suffered a really bad ankle sprain, I tore 2 ligaments and had a high ankle sprain and a lateral anjkle sprain. Another injury sidelining me for a month. Throughout the summer before my senior year and my senior season, I sustained another 12 high ankle sprains. This lead me to a difficult decision, do I continue to play? Or do I take care of my body? I decided to sit the first few games while I thought hard during recovery. I ended up not being able to watch without being able to play so I decided to play. The outcome I faced for my decision, was only more ankle sprains. But, I did not regret it at all. I was glad I made the decision to play my final season and create those memories with my teammates.
