Spotlight Impressions

by Chase Carrico

In each episode of Spotlight Impressions, I will be breaking down an event or the performance of one athlete, most likely a football or basketball player, from a particular game to learn more about them and to get a better feel for how they approach the game. Sometimes an individual performance gets lost in the entirety of a game, so I will be spotlighting one player and tracking them throughout the game.
