From the field to the classroom, life as a student athlete can be busy. Balancing practice, games, homework, and a social life can be overwhelming to some student athletes. However, with dedication and support systems, student athletes can juggle their busy lives, like UTEP graduating senior and Football’s defensive end Dresden McIver-Brown.
Having roots in Selma, Texas, McIver-Brown’s football career started at the age of six.
“When I was six, my dad wanted me to start playing football, so he made me start playing then,” McIver-Brown said.
