"My Kent State student-athlete experience has made me grow stronger as a person and will prepare me for my future career. How hard we work in practice and in the classroom is the skill you need for the real world. I had to learn how to manage my time and be a responsible student-athlete-citizen. Being late to practice and team meetings in not tolerated with coaches, and it will not be tolerated with a future client or boss. Taking these skills I have learned from my athletic experiences will help me succeed in the real world."
