I was also able to interview Julio Guity. During the interview he told me his real reason for coming to Montevallo was because he was able to get a full ride scholarship. Although that was important for him, he has experienced many things while attending Montevallo that has given him reason to stay. He is from California, he says he enjoys California more but he has no regrets for coming to Al. Even though he misses his family he is not sure if going back home after graduation is something he wants yet. College has even more opportunities than he imagined it would have, says that it has changed him. He admitted that before coming to school he never thought he would leave his home. Says College has given him courage to do things that are out of his comfort zone no matter the outcome. He plays on the basketball team, hoping to be able to continue his basketball career after school is finished. Even though he says he won’t be upset if he is unable to play professional ball but believes it would be a blessing for him if he does. He just wants to make his family proud that is his motivation to keep going hard everyday with school and his basketball career.
