In college I only played one way. My last year I played center, the only year I ever played center. Made all conference team that year. We played mostly even fronts so my speed helped me reach defensive tackles or getting to line backers.
In Ice Hockey you would have been a big Defenseman or forward but they would have tried to get you down to around 220 I figure. Congrats on making all conference team!

What is your height and weight now?
Closer to 6 foot 2 and I weigh about 230. More fat less muscle these days, but much less fat than a year ago.

Nor is scuba diving or floating around with or without a purpose.
After we crack the levitation code, competitive floating will be a thing (sad to say).

Football was my first love, but I mostly played basketball. Played tennis for one summer and I really enjoyed it.

More recently Tennis in a low ranking local league. Always trail running and orienteering but not that well. School boy football (soccer). Thought of myself as a right winger, got played as a right back. 😏

Tennis badly.
I also own a track car with a couple of pals. An old Audi TT.
We thrash that round local circuits mostly for fun.

I was a runner at school.
Beat everybody my age in town and got to shake Prince Edward's hand and a photo of that in the paper.

Just curious if anyone plays any sports for fun or for competition...

As a kid I played baseball and won awards because I could play any position.

Hockey I was a goalie.
Soccer I was a goalie.
Mountain Biking.

Now it's just Arm Wrestling. 💪
I was a long-distance runner in high school, but years of pounding on the concrete roads and the R. knee started swelling. That was long ago, now running has given way to yoga. Not much to complain about though - My you tube yoga instructor provides ample motivation to work out (see link) 😍
