Matty Thompson is tearing it up on the lacrosse field of High Point University -- but a little differently than you may think. There is a story about a UNC football player who was about to hang up the cleats mid-career when his coaches and teammates begged him to stay on the team as the 12th man on the field, in the locker room, sidelines -- on and off the field. He was the ambassador of moral, and that is what Matty Thompson is for High Point Lacrosse.
Matty and I hit on a lot of great topics, but the greatest of them all and philosophy and personality that Matty carries with him everyday is levity. Levity is perspective. Levity is that when life is complicated and we are stressed to the max to not take yourself too seriously and to be able to laugh at yourself.
Life is a fine balance between serious and humor, and I'd say when in doubt fall to the side of humor -- because the humor just might help with that thing which is serious -- and that is levity. Thank you, Matty -- never loose your charm and humor, and most importantly, and which is these two put together -- your heart!!
