Son has finished his mid-terms in his first semester, and he is doing exceptionally well. Interested in Biomedical Engineering. Also at a highly academic D3. Similar routine during the morning with some of his teammates, weight training from 7-9 p.m. every other night, working some other sports games as a stastician/announcer. Has been fighting a 'cold' for about 4 weeks and still came home with the sniffles and a cough! The kids are passing it around just like in high school and grade school. Also fighting with 'shin splints'. Eating right, just doesn't always seem to happen!
Second semester in the spring is going to be glorious, with several labs running for two hours, one until 7 p.m. and the other until 6 p.m on Fridays. Baseball is going to be very, very interesting this coming spring. I can see why some kids don't finish playing their sports in college. D3 is, or has to be defined as, the true place for a student/athlete. Boy I've missed him these last few months. We're really glad he's home for Thanksgiving, although he's been with his friends mostly.
