Ash Kelley

Aww.

Aww.

He also was always a good student.

He avoided drinking.

He didn't do drugs.

When he was in high school, he joined the Santa Fe High School baseball and the basketball team.

And he was involved in student government.

He was involved in Boy Scouts.

But he always made sure to spend enough time on his studies at the same time.

So he's like involved in all these different extracurriculars, but also managing to be a good student at the same time.

Yeah, which is not easy.

No, it's not.

Now, when he graduated from high school in 1986, he was accepted at Southwest Texas State University.

And he had a brief stint there before he ended up transferring to Tarleton State University.

And that was on a basketball scholarship.

Sports had always played a really big part in his life.

But after a few years, it became clear to him that this wasn't going to be his whole life.

Like he wasn't going to be in the NBA.

Yeah.

So he transferred to a third school, this time the University of Texas, and he ended up deciding to study medicine there.
