It’s more than a game for William Golston Jr., the wide receiver for the Jackson State University football team.
Golston is well known for being a part of the football team and men’s track and field team as a jumper.
Golston transferred to JSU last year from South Alabama. He chose JSU because of the great culture and tradition of the football team.
Golston finds something unique about himself being that he is mixed with African-American, Cherokee Indian and Chinese.
He plans to make it as far as possible in football and after that he wants to open his own training facility for student athletes to better themselves in the future.
Golston wants to do anything possible to help his team win and will step up when things don’t seem to be going in JSU way.
Before each game, Golston rehearses strategies that they have made during the week and he plays the game in his head the night before and on game day.
Golston is very blessed to have such a strong support system from his family and friends.
He feels football does prepare him for life because the things he goes through by being an athlete made him mentally tough.
“The season is a roller coaster right now, but as we stay together and become closer as a team it will get better and we will see changes,” said Golston.
