These are D3 athletes, and participation in organized athletics
completes their life. For them, athletics does not define or dictate
or limit; athletics is not life for a D3 player. Life is more, and
they live it to the fullest. Once the last horn is sounded and the
last scores tallied for a career, life goes on for the D3 player,
the vast majority of whom will never be noticed by the professional
ranks. They are D3 athletes because they exemplify the student-athlete
ideal. They realize D3 participation will allow them to have more
opportunities at this point in their life than will their counterparts,
and those experiences will benefit them in immeasurable ways throughout
their life after college. MORE
