The Gold and Blue mascot gave a solid piece of advice to any youth in the area.

“It doesn’t matter what or where you are – get involved in something. You know, you will be in middle school for three years, high school for four years, college for four years. You’ll have a lot better time and a lot better experience if you go out and join a club or play a sport; do something and not just stay in your room playing Fortnite,” said Hager.
