[quote=Anonymous]The other thing to realize is at a certain level, sports take up a lot of time. In HS, it is basically 3 hours a day 5-7 days a week. The time comes from somewhere. In college, it is worse. I was expected to be at practice or games, missed a lot of time because of games (Baseball: three game series in Miami during the week meant missed classes). The way I handled it was summer school (18 credits), Fall (18 Credits), winter (14 credit) -- had to get ready for the reason, Spring 9 credits (toward degree) + a 4 credit filler independent study that was basically baseball). I graduated with a BS in Physics. I tried to do grad school and minors at the same time, fall was ok, but spring semester 1st year I could not. Second year I was in AA, and the team was in the same town as my grad school. After that year, I realized I would not make the majors and walked away.[/quote]
