t five hours of training a day. If training hours (5), class hours (3.5) and study hours (6) are added up, that is around fourteen and a half hours of hard work a day, and that does not give time for eating and travel. Weekends could normally be another option for students to work, study or do homework, but student athletes have practices or games that take up most of the day every weekend. Cal State University of Long Beachs baseball program has games or practice games every Saturday and Sunday throughout most of the school year. With weekends taken, mornings taken and the afternoons taken, that does not leave much time for anything else.Monday through Thursday, student athletes have about fourteen and a half hours of hard work and Friday, Saturday and Sunday they have about twenty one hours combined. Added together, that is seventy nine hours of intense work a week. That is almost twice the amount of work in a nine to five job. Could you handle almost eighty hours of work a week?...
