S2 E1 Behind The Jersey - Kolin Smart

Beekmantown High School's Athletic Director kicks off the premiere episode of the second season of Behind the Jersey, with senior varsity athlete Kolin Smart.

Episode Highlights:

• The Unstoppable Spin Move: Kolin reflects on teaching his Unified Basketball teammate Gage a signature spin move, leading to a viral game-day moment featured on WPTZ news.
• The Cucumber Game-Day Ritual: Kolin breaks down his non-negotiable pregame meal of two whole cucumbers poured with ranch dressing alongside a buffalo chicken sandwich.
• Effort Over Raw Skill: Moving to varsity soccer as a sophomore without advanced technical skills, Kolin proved that pure effort pays off, helping transform the squad from winless to 14–2 Sectional Champions.
• Competitive Gaming & Yamal Mentality: Outside of school sports, Kolin competes in video game tournaments (currently playing FIFA 26) and visualizes game plays to Spanish and Brazilian music inspired by soccer star Lamine Yamal.
