Scrums, studies replace dreams


By Kermit Rowe
Staff Writer

Sunday, February 24, 2008

Like many a red-blooded, American boy, he dreamed of playing college football.
And former Shawnee football standout Aaron Jenkins was sold out to that dream, the pursuit of which gained him some considerable notice. He was an all-league and all-district lineman for the Braves.
The funny thing about dreams, though, is they don't always come true. Sometimes, goals change as reality sets in during the pursuit of your dream.
So the 2007 Shawnee grad Jenkins traded his boyhood dream for an academic scholarship to Ohio State and a scrum ? on the Buckeyes' rugby club team.
"I always grew up watching the Buckeyes and college football, and I always wondered what it would be like to play in college," Jenkins admitted. "Once I got closer to it, I was getting a couple of letters to play from colleges. And I was talking to UD for awhile."
But plans change.
"When I realized that it would be a lot cheaper to come to Ohio State, with the financial aid, I couldn't pass it up," he said.
