Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

I had to stay the summers at my mom's the first 2 years I played football, so I missed all summer workouts; I had to do weightlifting by myself and stay motivated. When I returned I had to learn all of the defensive plays that my teammates had already learned. This taught me to learn as much as I can and strive to get better. I was not hindered by this situation, as I now a 2 year starter.
