Eric Sassi – D1 Greenville Character Athlete of The Month
April 5, 2013 – The dictionary defines dedication as devoting or setting aside for a particular purpose which perfectly describes Eric Sassi. As the running back for Beck Middle School, Sassi is committed to exercising and getting better at football through whole-heartedly training at D1 four days a week. From the time he hits the turf until the training session is over, Sassi is zealous, coachable and enthusiastic. Not only does he push his peers to become better athletes but has shown great improvement in footwork and coordination over the last several months. His favorite team and who he aspires to play for one day is the Patriots, as Tom Brady is an athlete who Sassi looks up to most as hard-working individual and professional football player.
