AUBURN, Ala. - It’s a debate you might expect to hear in a psychology class. Are we influenced more by genetics or environment?
When you shift the conversation to athletics, asking Auburn’s coaches what factors lead to the development of elite athletes, it’s not a question of Nature vs. Nurture.
The answer, they say, is “All of the Above.” Nature and Nurture, plus work ethic, coaching and mental toughness.
For equestrian coach Greg Williams, whose teams have won four national championships, it starts with God-given ability.
