But the faith someone has to overcome all of the usual abilities it takes to be a competitive football player never comes into play, as it may be just a personal inclination. As a scholar and students capacity, such as myself, may be influenced by my responsibilities as a student and accomplishing a passing grade is equated to scoring a goal or executing my dream play, to do my very best in preparation for game day. When it comes to participating in the right advance placement classes, being involved with the class council, or taking advance college courses, I
