Tanner Rosenthal is an eleventh grade student at North Lakes Academy. He is also a part-time PSEO student, takes part in AP classes, and plays multiple sports. Today, I interviewed him to get an inside scoop on what the life of a multi-sport athlete is like, both in sports and out.
Kaden: First question: Who has supported you the most while playing sports?
Tanner: My parents
Kaden: Great. Next question: What are the sports that you play?
Tanner: I run cross country, I play baseball, and I run track.
Kaden: Do you have a favorite (sport)?
Tanner: Nah, they’re even.
Kaden: They are all even? Every single sport?
Tanner: Uh, Baseball and cross country are tied.
Kaden: Ok. Next question: What was your favorite moment while playing sports?
Tanner: Probably hitting a home run at 11-U traveling.
Kaden: Was it a close game?
Tanner: No
Kaden: No? Were you up or down?
Tanner: We were down. It was for Andover and we lost to Forest Lake.
Kaden: Ok, Next question: How much sleep do you get per night during the sports seasons?
Tanner: Like 6 ½, 7 hours.
Kaden: That’s good. That’s pretty good for being a PSEO (student) and sports player.
Tanner: It’s not bad
Kaden: One of my last questions: Where is your favorite place to run?
Tanner: I like to run on the Hardwood Creek Trail, the North South Trail in Forest Lake.
Kaden: Do you like it hot or cold (when you run)?
Tanner: Definitely cold. Like a lot better than hot.
Kaden: That’s it.
Tanner: Thanks for having me!
Kaden: Of course! Thanks for letting me interview you.
