IHSAA Student-Athlete Tip of the Week (1/20/25)

"Promoting Education Based Athletics in Indiana"

Former NFL great Tom Brady has transitioned to a color commentator for NFL games and his insights into football and other sports often hit home.  

He recently made a statement that I believe is as true for high school as it is for the NFL.

Brady said during an NFL broadcast, "I have always felt there is a difference between a star and a champion.  And champions do whatever it takes to win.  Stars can all make plays; they are all over the NFL.......Are you willing to do the unselfish work that you need to do in order for your team to win games and big moments."

Stars are everywhere in high school as well.  If you want to be a champion, put in the extra time and effort needed to set yourself apart, regardless of your sport!
