Gosh. You listen to this young man speak, and you don’t have to wonder what kind of student athletes we are Graduating at UH

It makes me very grateful to be an alum

A reminder sits in his dorm room: a parachute and ankle weights he asked for Christmas when he was a teenager at Twin Creeks Middle School. It was at the school, Smith said, that coach Lennis Brice offered words that still ring true today.

“I was frustrated. Why were there people faster than me, bigger than me and they don’t work for it?” he said. “It really upset me. He told me, ‘Chandler, if you just work hard every single day harder than anybody else, I promise eventually you’ll start surpassing those people.’”

Brice was one of the first to send a congratulatory text Thursday.

Smith’s response: “You ignited that fire in me.”
