Carl Greene of East Greenwich, Rhode Island is carving out a lane for himself and proving small school athletes can do BIG THINGS

From the beginning, Greene has been the underdog. At every level undersized as a child and including his high school days at Bishop Hendricken a powerhouse in Warwick, RI. Greene was a three sport athlete in football, track and Rugby. But, he had to fight for recognition. While others were handed the spotlight, and in college he earned every snap, every rep, and every ounce of respect. That underdog mentality carried him through college, where he quietly developed into a force. fast, versatile, mentally strong and unshakably driven. I asked Carl how he has dealt with so much adversity and he simply responded “Faith. I call God whenever something goes sideways.”
