The purpose of my website is to get our athletes of today to understand that their academics are just as important as their athleteics. Athletes should give as much time and effort towards their academics as they do with their athletics. I want to challenge our athletes to exceed beyond the required minimum GPA of only a 2.00. I would love for athletes to strive to get a 3.00 and higher. I understand that this not an easy task and it will not get done over night. But with the help of athletes, students, teachers, and coaches this can be accomplished. I believe that promoting educational values to scholar athletes and showing them the importance of education will enable them to become better businessmen and develop careers parallel to sports.
i was discussing this with a friend one time. i feel like most student athletes this days use the sport they participate in as an excuse not to put much effort into their academics. i know this is definitely not an easy task, but at the same time i feel like if they put 3/4 of the effort they put into the sport they play into their academics, their academic standard will definitely turn out good.
