“
AFTER GRADUATING COLLEGE, I REALIZED I WASN’T IN THE FINANCIAL, SOCIAL, OR PROFESSIONAL SITUATION I ALWAYS SAW MYSELF IN. MUCH OF THAT WAS ROOTED IN MY INABILITY TO REPRIORITIZE MY LIFE IN A WAY THAT SET ME UP FOR A FUTURE THAT DID NOT INCLUDE BECOMING A PROFESSIONAL ATHLETE.
— Jared Hendryx, THE NXT PLAY Founder
