has been who never was wrote:

My grades were always better in season (Fall and Spring quarters) because time was at such a minimum . I was almost forced into a set schedule/study routine because of practices and weekend travel for meets. Zero idle time. The discipline needed to compete @ the D1 level usually carried over to the classroom. I would argue that the XC and track mid distance, distance runners were some of the best students @ the school because of what is required to excel @ such a high level of comp. The academic side fed off of the athletics and vice-versa. I would also add that most of us (but certainly not all) have moved on to kicking ass and taking names in our careers, whatever they may be.


What exactly is this difference that you think exists between d1 and other schools? Do you think they are just sitting on their butts? They are running miles just like you are
