The life of a student athlete competing in the NCAA is a lifestyle that is glorified by many, but only truly known by few. On the surface, the life of a student athlete may look easy, but underneath the exterior many tough and demanding experiences are endured. Although some will get the opportunity to play professionally in their respective sports, the reality is that 98% of student athletes who graduate from these prestigious institutions will transition out of sports -- making a very difficult transition at times -- and become a professional in a totally different field.

 

Groundwork 29: Books, Ball and Beyond is a riveting, real-life account of a dynamic and multi talented student athlete from the Bronx, NY pursuing excellence in every facet of the student athlete life: school and academics, training and sports, and the most unacknowledged aspect, the transition out of sports into the professional world.
