'Stang Diary with Kevin Wilson

For this installment of 'Stang Diary we check in with 2011 FHS grad and current freshman basketball player at Millsaps College (MS), Kevin Wilson.




 
"We kicked off our season with a midnight practice here at Millsaps and we have been going ever since. Practice is pretty demanding but I am getting a lot better. The pace of the game is definitely faster and it will take a little bit to get used to, but I'm getting there. It has been a lot of fun but I am still working to make sure I get a spot on the travel team. Looking back we were way too easy on the younger guys, here they will get on to you for anything. It is a good push though.

The school work is intense. I have yet to pull an all-nighter but I have stayed up till 5 a couple of times trying to finish a paper or study for a test. I got my midterm grades back and I'm at about a 3.2 but I plan on doing better than that the rest of the semester. I am studying math pre-engineering. My classes are hard but manageable. I would not be where I am today if it was not for Mrs. Westerfeld, thank you.

I joined a fraternity, Kappa Alpha, and so far it has been fun. It takes a lot of time but I think it will be worth it. College is a crazy and fun but time management is a big part of being successful."
