“I am getting back to football after a season ending back injury, I found out that I have arthritis but I can still play. I have been trying to get back to where I was in the weight room and I am basically there. I am going to use track again to help with my back and slowly help me get back into football again. I hope that when football does start again that I can play fully with little to no noticeable pain in my back. I have been trying to do better with doing my homework and so when I get home I try to do my homework before doing anything else. For the past couple weeks I have been doing my work on time and have been trying my best while doing it. But I am still most excited for my senior football season, for I wasn’t able to play my junior year but I started varsity my sophomore season.”
