Student in Athens, GA

When I was younger I was never a big sports fan. I grew up in a household that wasn’t into any sports. It wasn’t until high school where my love for the game grew.

I started playing fantasy football with my friends and every year I would continue to get better on top of getting closer with the people I was playing with. This is how I found some of my best friends and graduated high school a two time Fantasy Football champion.

From there I started to get into even more leagues becoming a huge Hawks and Braves fan. I also picked up playing lacrosse for my high school team, where I served as a defensive middy and helped the team to win our first playoff game in school history. The photo that I added is of me and my mom at lacrosse senior night.

While I do admire basketball, baseball, and lacrosse. My heart was always with football. I would look forward to every fall where I would get to draft players and watch my favorite teams play. This continued throughout my whole high school experience.

Ultimately, it led me to choose to come to the University of Georgia where I have just finished my freshman year. This year finished with the dawgs being SEC champions. We might not have won the whole thing but I am confident that there will be a national championship in the years to come. In addition we made the March Madness basketball tournament and as I sit writing this the Dawgs have secured their seat to play in Omaha for a College Baseball World Series national title.

Overall, I could not have made a better decision then coming to Georgia and I am ecstatic to see what we are capable of this fall.

Go Dawgs!
