Practicing football in 90 degree heat with humidity levels high seems like a daunting task, but for Clemson cornerback Mackensie Alexander, it is a walk in the park.
“I’m not going to say it is easy, but I make it look easy because I work hard,” he said.
Alexander gets his work ethic from his parents, who, like their son, have spent a lot of their days in the hot son. But they were not playing a game they love. Instead, they were working in the hot fields of South Florida picking tomatoes.
In fact, Alexander’s father still works in the tomato fields.
