Many athletes fail academically in college and lose their scholarship. How did your boys deal with the grueling schedule and long bus trips that make it so difficult to keep up academically?
It was challenging for both boys – the oldest, however, never managed to miss the same class twice. The youngest had the toughest time, but he knew if he did not maintain his grades he could not continue his athletic career. Of course, playing college athletics and trying to maintain their grades, the time involved for both was very demanding and had a direct influence on their social life. They both knew their grades came first.
