Post 2 Mid season struggle

Depending on your sport you can either be waiting all year for your season or it could be first up.  Its the best time of the year, you can finally put into action what you have been practicing during the off season. Busy schedules are probably the top struggle in my opinion. Having to do homework before a three hour practice just to do three more hours of homework after. Just by playing a sport half of your time is taken away from any other activity with the total of film time, practice, and weight room. As an athlete you must maintain a 2.0 GPA to continue to play and this is something that can be difficult due to the loss of time. Traveling is another big part, sometimes missing three or four classes a week. Class still goes on whether we attend or not. Every time we travel I have to bring my lap top and homework because sometimes I'll have to do homework or takes tests that I have missed. Having this work load with sports on top of that is something that I feel people tend to forget when they stereotype athletes. The sports season is by far the most exciting time of the year but it is also by far the hardest part of the year with managing all the homework, workouts, and games.
