What high school sports mean to me: High school sports have helped me grow so much as a human being. When you step in, you don’t know what to expect, but after the last couple of years, I’ve bonded with great people and met a lot of great people. You learn to be more of a team person when you’ve made those connections. It’s a great thing in life, helps with time management and gives you something to do when you don’t have anything to do.
