When you were younger, you played sports for fun. Most of the time, it was your parents who signed you up for activities such as sports to get you out of the house and out of their hair. But it's not your parents who got excited to step on the field every chance they got. Yes they were there to support...

Your mind is a crazy thing. What's even crazier is the things that it allows you to do and the things it holds you back from. As an athlete the mind is just another aspect to overcome. For some, it's a bigger obstacle than others. It's a thing where seeing the glass half full can get you a lot...

This past weekend, my lacrosse team traveled to Washington, D.C. for a game. While we were there we got the opportunity to visit some of the monuments, including the White House.
