I think Quote by Ben White

“Year after year, you keep playing and I think when it gets to a scholarship, it kind of starts to get serious from when you are a youngster. But yeah, it was tough. There are a lot of things that go through your head, like a normal life. But there was only a Plan A for me.” quote by Ben White
