5'9" point guard for the Victoria Stingarees. Team captain. I could dunk a tennis ball. If we would've had a 3-point line in those days, oh baby.

Basketball (SF/PF) and golf (team captain) throughout high school.

I also played football (DE) my freshman year and soccer during my junior and senior years.

Feel free to discount all of the above because I went to a small school.

Competitive cheerleading as well as cheering in high school and college.

And before you try to say it's not a sport....you try doing what we had to do and get back to me.

Only the third and final one.

First was from taking a knee to the head when I lowered it too low trying to tackle a big arse RB during a game. I had to be physically pulled off the field by one of our LBs after lining up on the wrong side of the field. He said I was babbling and speaking in triplicate like I was Rain Man.

The second was in practice trying to be all badass going up against an o-lineman in a tackling drill that I had no business lining up against.

It being the 90s its always possible I had more that weren't diagnosed.

The HC even tried to shame me into changing my mind when I informed him I was done. He gave me this long diatribe about regretting decisions you make when you are young and how I'd miss the game during the season. He really thought the idea of quitting over concussions was based on unfounded fears.

It isn't a sport, but it is hard. It helps to be athletic.

Football - undersized Quickside Guard and average outside LB. I was the wedge-buster on kickoffs, also. That was serious fun. I was decent and had the chance to play (very) small college ball, but decided to skip sports in college and attend TAMU.

Tennis - Varsity doubles. I was NOT good, but large enough to be a bit scary at the net!

Track - Shot and Discus. Reasonably competitive at Disc, but never advanced beyond District.
