Is it tough being a varsity athlete and maintaining good grades at college?
My S did it first semester and got good grades. Sometimes the more you do the better you are at organizing your time ie he procastinated less and was effecient in time, still had time for socializing. It is important to listen to your body though. My S got injured as he pushed himself too hard, was performing better then in high school but working out hard 7 days per week at an intense level. Noone will encourage you to back off. My S actually had a better experience 2nd semester when injured as he had time to pursue intrammurals , outdoor club activities and meet a variety of other people besides those on the team. It was a great way to start though and he is debating whether to join it again sophomore year.
