Words of Encouragement:
"My advice for anyone, athlete or not, is to lead by example and BE NICE. I was taught from a young age to always treat others better than myself. No matter what I was doing in high school, I remembe always going out of my way to include people who normally were not. Recently, I received two separate messages from people I graduated with who just wanted to thank me for being nice to them and partnering with them in class. I don't remember doing this. Another classmate remembered me sitting by them at lunch a few times. Hearing this means so much more to me than any award or recognition ever could. This world is full of amazing athletes in desparate need of kindness. You may be the best at your sport or the smartest or most-liked person in the school, but you can also be nice. Someday, it is going to hurt to run and throwing a ball will leave you sore for a week. You'll look back and realize the things that mattered were not how many things you did, but who you were while doing them."
