Looking back, Fukishige credits many of her accolades to discipline.
“I’ve grown a lot as a player during my time at Skidmore 和 really strengthened my 战术游戏. I also adapted to the way we play as a team, not shying away from being aggressive when we need to, knowing when to take a risk 和 when to play it safe.”
Fukishige says being a student-athlete also meant performing just as strongly in the 教室.
“When you travel with the team, you realize the importance of not waiting until the 最后一分钟做作业. 我学会了用小块来做东西，这 时间管理是一种生活技能吗.”
She also has some words of wisdom for aspiring Thoroughbreds: “Work hard, play hard 好好利用你的四年. 这样做是为了留下一段与你相伴的回忆吗 永远.”

“Being a student-athlete means a lot to me,” said Langyintuo. 代表我的学校 做一项我喜欢的运动是一段很棒的经历.”
“这也很有挑战性，”他补充说. “但这只会让我更自律. 现在, I approach life 和 soccer the same way: Give it your all 和 work hard. 不管 分数或情况，继续前进.”
Getting through those challenges on 和 off the field was a team effort for Langyintuo.
“My teammates are great guys who helped me grow as a person 和 a player. 我要真的 miss playing pickup in the off-season 和 hanging out on the field during the summer or when other international students would join a game just to have some fun.”
还有他永远不会忘记的? “那场对阵库卡学院的比赛. 我得了四分 我相信这是学校的记录.”
