It's a Grind

Playing a college sport is a grind. It is very tiring and stressful. Right now it is coming down to the end of the semester and there is a lot going on from test to big papers and just work. Just doing all that is tiring but add a soccer practice in there for 2 hours then dinner and shower a soccer practice turns into a 2.5-3 hour thing. This makes for late nights going to bed at 12-2AM every night. Just because you have classes till practice then dinner shower then you are starting homework. This makes it very stressful on the Student athlete.Last week we had practice from 4-6 then the next day we had practice from 6-730AM that was a very tough turn around with practice. I was up late the night before doing homework and working on papers. The night before the morning practice I did not sleep. This makes for a very tiring life and to be honest you don't want to do anything social or better yet anything but sleep. As a college athlete this is a life that is guaranteed to happen. What I said the other day on my twitter page and it was this:


My life consist of three things:
1.School
2.Soccer
3.Sleep


Those are in order of what happen in a life of a college athlete.
