Shooting hoops
Age: 21
Field of study: Business
Sport: Intramural Basketball (Fly Boyz)
Have you had any injuries?
A couple, but not major. We don't play against the best players all the time, and sometimes they can get a little crazy.
What's your schedule like?
We play one or two games a week. We don't practice, we just play the game. (More like street basketball)
What got you playing?
I used to live in Queens, New York, so basically everywhere I went, everyone played basketball.
How long have you been playing?
Since I was like 11.
Describe yourself in one word?
Charismatic, because a lot of people say that I am.
What's one random fact about you?
My favourite colour is blue.
Favourite thing about basketball?
You can basically do whatever (with intramural). Its not like some other sports where its more stiff, and you have set positions.
Do you play any other sports?
I played football, badminton, almost every sport except for hockey.
Do you ever feel like quitting?
Not really.
Who's your number fan?
Probably my little brother.
What's the worst thing about basketball?
In the game, there's no balance skill wise.
How do you handle losing?
We played a few games since January, and we only lost one. When we do lose, I'm sad at first, but you just do something different next time.
What's your best memory?
When I crossed over this one guy during the very first game. He had to put ice on his ankle.
Do you have a special diet?
Not particularly. In the summer, I don't eat a lot of junk food, I eat a little bit of everything, vegetables, meat. I drink more water.
One day I want to own my own business. In the future I probably still will be playing basketball. Probably coach a kid's team.
