Our SID spent an entire day, from 6:30am to 11pm with our team during a two-a-day. He shows everything that goes into a two-a-day schedule. It's the best thing I've read on a college site in a while. Oh yea, it's a lot of pictures, so it's not a ton of reading.
For those who think the life of a student-athlete is easy, LibertyFlames.com is here to dispel the rumor. A common myth for those unfamiliar with collegiate athletics is the student-athlete is pampered and given the easy route to a higher education.
However, that misnomer is probably as far from the truth as possible. Between early morning workouts, a full slate of classes, afternoon practices and evening study sessions, the average student-athlete works harder preparing for a vocation than when they graduate and transition into the working world.
