No athlete goes into a season expecting to get hurt. Andover High School sophomore Matt Rudy spent much of this football season recovering from an injury in order to be prepared for basketball season.
“I was unable to play football this year. It set back all the hard work I put in during the summer. I was able to come back and play basketball,” said Rudy. “After my injury my teammates helped me get back to 100 percent. They mean a lot to me, they helped to push me to be my best.”
A ten-year veteran of the basketball court, Rudy is looking forward to his junior year and having a full year of both sports.
During this shutdown, Rudy is working more than ever to be ready for football practice some time this summer.
“I’m working hard so I can be at the top of my game for football and basketball,” said Rudy.
