Conquering King's Peak, Utah
Matt Kraft '09 - The 2008 senior trip will prove to be one of the biggest moments of our season. As a class, we had the opportunity to overcome an obstacle that individually few of us would have been able to achieve. Additionally, I felt privileged to get to know my classmates on a more personal level. So much of our time as football players is spent thinking in a football sense. During the trip, we received the chance to put that aside and spend time with each other outside of the game. That aspect is what will outlast our playing careers
The trip was not only good for our individual relationships; it was an exciting forecast of our upcoming achievements. It is a well-used cliché that football is a character builder. I never really believed that too much. However, I believe that it is very much a character revealer. Similarly, through the tougher elements of our journey, character and heart were revealed. Seeing the fellow seniors exposed for who they are excited me more than our mountaintop accomplishments. Wabash Football will be something to see.
