Student Athletes ...
My daughter played Division III soccer, and my son ran Division II cross country. Both were real student athletes, as were all their teammates, and all their opponents.

Were their games televised? Could you go to a sporting goods store and purchase their jerseys? What did a ticket to watch them play cost?
Thanks for making my point.

Hey. Thanks to the Forum, I hope to someday earn my G.E.D. It's cheaper than a tutor, and more fun than taking an adult education class at my local high school.
