College student athletes have it harder than some may think. Their sport requires lots energy and time throughout the season. Being a student athlete you have high expectations as a role model and education requirements in the academic field as well. Trying to balance both can be difficult at times. College athletes find it hard to exert the same amount of energy in the classroom as they do in their sport. Sometimes it is hard for an athlete to study for class or get extra work done because of the hard and long practice and game schedules. Thesis: College Athletes find it hard to exert the same amount of energy in the classroom as they do in their sport. Some of these complications include struggling to make the dean’s list while in season, practice, coursework and sleep. Because college athletes face a unique challenge of balancing school and sport this paper will examine the research about the success rate of college student athletes and the stress level of athletes who are expect to perform well in their sport and maintain enough energy to do well academically as well.
