DRIBBLING the white hockey balls, with dimples on its shell, on the green lawns and astro turfs, Vishal Sangani and Saurabh Mishra balanced their studies with the national game to bring smiles on their parents’ faces.
The Dhyanchand Sports Academy players and Dr Ambedkar College, Deekshabhoomi students excelled in the Higher Secondary Certificate Examination and passed out with flying colours.
Sangani, who plays as a forward with Dhyanchand Sports Academy, secured 87 per cent from commerce stream. Similarly, goalkeeper Mishra garnered 82 per cent. Both the players have represented Vidarbha in national meets.
Mishra was the goalkeeper of Dhyanchand team which won the inter-district title at Chandrapur a couple of months back and is second goalkeeper in the current Vidarbha senior team which will be participating in the nationals at Lucknow from June 5.
Vishal, son of LIC agent Kiran, wants to become a financial advisor after completing his graduation in commerce. “I want to do an MBA course and after that will take financial advisory field,” he said.
Mishra, whose father Dinesh is a school bus driver with Swaminarayan, too, wants to complete his graduation from commerce. “I want to complete my commerce graduation first and then will decide on future.”
Both said they hardly studied for hours. “I used to study for around half an hour daily and used to solve accounts problems late in the night,” said Sangani. “After returning home from evening practice I used to go to bed after dinner. After an hour or two I used to wake up and solve problems,” he added.
Mishra said, “I used to attend only Sunday tuition classes. I never studied for hours. Rather, I preferred playing hockey.”
