I’m so proud of our kids for getting the win last night! But I’m extremely proud of our kids for showing love to our head cheer coach, who is a 2 time breast cancer survivor! We changed up our run out to honor her at last nights game with pink roses! She is the definition of a warrior and we are blessed to have her here at Humble High School! Proud of our cheerleaders as well for the big surprise at halftime!! #ProtectTheH

Fourth, prioritize psychological safety and frame it as a competitive advantage. Players only seek help when it won't cost them their role or contract. If owners and coaches see it as a wellness add-on, they won't prioritize it. If they see it as a way to win, they will.

Then they face the pressure of college and professional sports. Those demands can intensify vulnerabilities that were already there long before they turned pro.

Second, broaden mental health resources beyond counseling and crisis lines. Research on person-activity fit shows that when a tool fits who someone is, they're far more likely to use it. Support has to feel natural to work.

But here's the good news. Early adversity raises the risk. It doesn't decide a player's mental health. With the right support and coping skills, those paths can change. That's where players have agency.

Woke up this morning not planning to go on a tangent about player mental health. But here we go.

Here's what gets lost. A lot of players grow up dealing with serious adversity: violence, loss, instability at home. Those experiences build the toughness and drive that make them great. But they come with a cost.

Penn State WR Chase Sowell on the team moving forward: “You should still have fun. You should still enjoy it. You’re playing for one of the greatest universities in the world. It’s an amazing opportunity to show who wants this because they love football and love this place.”
