Team IMPACT opened a whole world of possibilities at times in my life that were isolating and difficult because of my medical conditions. The relationships I formed with many teammates have been life long, and I still talk to and see some of the first members I met. The Merrimack College men's soccer team taught me the value of being part of a team and playing a sport I love. Now, I am able to bring my lessons learned to the Curry College men's tennis team.
