]]> Buzzsprout (https://www.buzzsprout.com) Nir Reaching Goals On & Off the Field - Soccer Story Athletes deal with injuries every time they play their sport. It can feel like you're never going to get better from an incredibly difficult injury. I spoke with DJ Jenkins, a soccer player here in Long Beach State. He tore his meniscus and had to deal with a year of rehab, and still deals with after effects. DJ still loves to play soccer, and continues to have love for the sport even after an injury that stopped him from playing for his whole season.
