How to Get Noticed by Your Coach: Tips for Student-Athletes

Question
Hey Mark,
  My name is Phillip Im a freshman and Im a really good running and i feel I'm not being noticed by my coach because the player in front of me is a little faster i have a lot  of talent and heart and am willing to do anything how should i project my self to the coaches

Answer
Phil,

Be the first in line for every drill, go full speed all the time and work really hard in practice. Dont sulk because the other guy is in front of you. Just show the coaches how much you want to play with effort in practice. Rember actions speak louder than words.
