We played with Texas for a half on the road in front of a crowd of 10,993 people. It was a 3 point game with 2:08 remaining in the first half. A pair of second half 12-0 runs for the Longhorns put the game away as we got wore down by the size, strength, and NBA level talent of the #19 ranked team in country.
It was a great environment for our student-athletes to compete in. We will continue to work in growing the HCU program as we also play nationally ranked power programs Creighton (#15) and Texas A&M (#13) this season.

A close friend told me he wanted to be lock in more with his nutrition
As someone who has spent years refining my own nutrition habits, I knew I could help him.
This is exactly what I texted him. I tried to keep it simple.

So itโs
1. Wake up water and salt (this immediately kickstarts digestion and is basically a shower for internal organs)
2. Delay coffee for 90 min after waking (helps w natural energy production and underlying stress hormones)
3. Meat, eggs, fruit, honey (donโt skimp on the proteins, hard to get fat eating meat)
4. Snacks = fruit and Greek yogurt type stuff
5. No big meals 2-3 hours before bed
6. 7-8 hours of sleep per night
This is not medical advice itโs just some things that I do that have helped me perform better, improve my body, mood, energy, hormones, sleep, etc.
