Supportive would be an understatement to describe all of the faculty and staff of Columbia High school. While not participating in a bunch of clubs or groups I consistently played football all four years. With all of the early starts in the summer and even the two a days in August I believe this helps show my determination and dedication to what I do. I love being part of a group and team that sacrifices all we do for each other. Coach Horner being one of the staff

    985 Words  | 4 Pages

    558 Words  | 3 Pages

    The documentary In Football We Trust followed the stories of four high school aged football players in Utah over the period of four years. Each of the families featured in the film were of Polynesian descent, and many of the people in the film were active members of the Church of Jesus-Christ of Latter-day Saints. Though all three families lived in Salt Lake City in Utah, the featured players attended three different high schools, and they did not all share the same access to resources. For many kids who grow up in poor neighborhoods, sports are often viewed as the only way to get out of the area they grew up in.
