Languid...that is my son every day after practice; he has to work as hard as he can to build strength and show his coaches what he can do. He feels he has to work twice as hard to be seen, and yet will acknowledge to me he is rarely seen. We see it at home how much stronger he is in a year. Then, he comes home and tackles homework- sometimes gets straight A's on top of it all. He has learned to manage his time and prioritize so he he is successful (but of course he makes xBox time too...he is 16 after all). To top it off, he rarely complains. He has no idea that the qualities he has developed as a result of no play time and 100% dedication will last a lifetime and take him so far someday.
