(S24) - PT 4 - Trial by Fire

[ConnorM123]

Xmus has been a leader and top performer throughout his whole football career before being drafted by the seawolves in the DSFL draft. Leading in almost every category possible by a defensive player and also by kick or punt returner with the california state university of Pennsylvania or calvulcans for short. So you can say he has been pretty used to being the best on his team. He started off his DSFL career only amassing a few tackles and the real awakening for Xmus was Week 2 against the Minnesota ducks, that even though it was a blowout for his team he did not contribute at all in that success missing tackles and left the game with nothing. This was a massive realisation for him that he isn't the main guy on this team and they do not rely on him performing to still get a win. This was tough to take and he knew he would have to work to become what he was before. He took a couple days off and returned back to his hometown to visit his old coach and visited his dad's grave where he had an epiphany moment. Remembering everything his dad had told him up to that point about never stopping working. Xmus has not stopped since then working every day and night at the gym and also taking any advice from the veteran players from the team and the league. He has now starting to improve dramatically and currently leads his team in sacks, not just the safeties but the entire defense. After that game, this has fuelled the determination back into him and the stats show the improvement ever since.
