(S24) - PT 4 - Trial by Fire

[yonggarius]

William Lim's 'welcome to the ISFL' moment was the moment when he first checked the Colorado Yeti depth chart. As a prospect from South Korea -a country not known for high competition in American football- William was used to having the number 1 spot locked in for him. Even in DSFL, where he first faced pro competition, his spot as the number 1 wide receiver was basically locked in as Dallas Birddogs were an expansion team competing for their inaugural season at the point that he joined. However, ISFL- the Yeti to be more exact- was a completely different story. William, for the first time in his career, found three names- James Bishop, Red Arrow and Jake Dropson- ahead of him in the depth chart. It was on that moment William truly realized that he needed to give everything to be a good wide receiver in the highest level. After that, he managed to get ahead of Dropson in the depth chart thanks to the hard work he put in, and became the third string receiver for the Yeti.

William's opportunity came after his rookie season, when the Yeti went all the way and won the Ultimus for the first time in team history. Both Bishop and Arrow announced retirement after the win, providing William with a prime chance to snag the number 1 receiver spot that he always wanted. Luckily, William's development level impressed the Yeti brass and he got the job, resulting in a splended 1200 yard season and offensive breakout player of the year award. (258)
