My name is Tyler Guy and this is my blog. I grew up in the great city of Scottsdale with both of my parents, my sister, and brother. As a kid, sports were always a big deal to me. I played soccer, baseball, football, and basketball, but I always loved shooting some hoops more than anything else. My best friend (who turned out to be my neighbor) liked basketball just as much as I did, and his dad started a team for the YMCA just to get his kid playing. Turns out, that decision would last all the way through my senior year of high school. I graduated from Horizon High School and played ball there for all four years and am now on an intermural team at ASU with some buddies I balled with that are a year or two older of me. School is more important to me than sports (if it wasn't I probably would have failed out of college already), and at the end of the day what GPA you graduate with and what you know from real world applications are what gets you a job, not being able to dunk or hit a 3 pointer in a clutch situation. Basketball has been a pretty important factor in my life to keep me motivated and active and in shape, but I've also been blessed with a great family and a wonderful girlfriend that I appreciate just as much.
To close, I'll leave you with a few interesting facts about me...
- I'm studying mechanical engineering through the Ira A. Fulton School of Engineering
- I've never gotten a C in any class
- I dunked for the first time my junior year
- I've been on three cruises, one to the Mexican Riviera and two to the Caribbean
- Dream home: Mountainside lake property or a beachfront property in a not-so-well-known city
- I'm left-handed (you would be surprised how many people find this interesting when they find out)
