What high school sports mean to me: They’ve always been the most important thing in my life. Growing up in a small community, you play them all, and if you don’t you’re kind of an outcast. They also prepare you for college and everything in the future. You get a work ethic. When your boss is telling you to do something, it’s the same thing.
