How do you feel about being in two sports in one season? For one athlete at I-35 she found that it was more difficult than she anticipated, but there is always a good to every bad.
Missing one practice to go to the other, going to two practices in one day, and being sore from both practices, are just some of the difficulties from being in two sports in one season.
“Finding time to practice for each sport and deciding which event I should go to is a difficult decision, but the hard work and dedication will be a reward at the end of the season,” said junior Rachael Wiggins.
Rachael is participating in both volleyball and cross country this fall. She goes to volleyball every day after school, so each night she has to find time to run for cross country.
“Volleyball is always going to come first, but being in cross country I feel that I will be in better shape for the upcoming track season, which is why I am running this fall,” stated Wiggins.
“I am very proud of Rachael. Taking on two varsity sports isn’t easy. I’m proud that she is already getting better for the upcoming track season,” said cross country coach Mark LeMaster.
