“I had to juggle practice, film and weight lifting, while still having to go to class and study like a normal student,” senior, Stanley Fleurant said.<\/p>\n
College is a juggling act on its own. From trying to manage a social life, find time to sleep and praying that you remember half the things you’ve studied, college can be stressful.<\/p>\n
When adding on extracurricular activities, you really have a show. However, Fleurant has spent the last four years doing it with ease.<\/p>\n
Being a student-athlete comes with a commitment to be more than the average student.\u00a0 Fleurant, a Homestead, Fla., native admits that life as a student athlete had its challenges. On the roster for both the school’s football and track & field teams, Fleurant has proven himself to be determined in his accomplishments at Gardner-Webb.<\/p>\n
Most college athletes have been training, practicing and participating in sports their whole life. So as graduation approaches and Fleurant begins a new chapter in his life it is almost certain that\u00a0 the burning question will be, “So what’s next?”<\/p>\n
Fleurant says his next plans are to join the United States Army and hopes that after serving four years he’ll come out and start his career as a social worker.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
