As a coach, former athlete, & parent living in
@SouthFayetteSD, people always jokingly ask, “What’s in the water over there?” (Because of all the athletic success over the years).
This morning I went for a run at 7:30am (three days after school ended), & saw high school athletes running laps around campus, lacrosse players working on their game, & athletes running sprints on the football field.
The best part? It was all player-led. No coaches. No trainers. Just kids putting in extra work.
The truth is, there’s nothing in the water.
There’s just a culture of hard work = success.
