LAKE ARTHUR — Many adults look back on their years in high school as some of the best years of their lives. As adults, they remember the days where one didn’t have bills to pay and quite so many responsibilities that come along with adulthood. While that may be true, it often goes unnoticed how much time, effort and devotion current high schoolers put in, especially for the academic athletes who dedicate nearly all their time to their sports, athletics and extracurricular activities in order to gain excellence, knowledge and experience necessary to achieve their long-term goals.
