🐾 Terrier Nation Athletes of the Week 9

🗣 This week's Female Athlete of the Week: Vivian Rodriguez as well as the Male Athlete of the Week Edgar Santoy: Most athletes assume preparation means practicing their own skills harder, forgetting that half of any contest is the opponent, and the athlete who studies the opponent as carefully as they studies themselves enters every competition holding a hidden advantage. Know your role and stop at nothing to succeed.

Practice with purpose and you will be prepared to prosper.
#Knowledgeis🗝

💪🏼 Way to Win the Week Vivian and Edgar. Your daily improvement directly impacts your personal, academic, and athletic lives today ☀️ while setting up your tomorrow.
