Athletes prioritize schedules to fit classes, careers
Nick Thornton, public administration graduate student, is a transfer from Baylor University and plays on the golf team. He said time management is critical when balancing school and sports.Being a Division I athlete and a graduate student can be a challenge, but these UTA athletes have it covered.
“Time management really becomes critical, and I think that’s something I got pretty decent at in undergrad. You definitely learn how much time you need to do certain things,” graduate student Nick Thornton said. “Based on that you can plan your day accordingly.”
Thornton is pursuing a master’s degree in public administration while playing one last season on the golf course.
