The M.G. High School Indians, and winning will become synonymous terms. Principally because of my efforts. Winning will not be automatic; neither will I win simply by wanting to win.
Wanting to win is not enough. I, the individual Indian, will become a winner, and will help the High School be a winner because I realize any worthwhile endeavor requires a
personal commitment, a price must be paid, a price whose currency is hard work, dedication, and sacrifice.
I will become a winner because I have determined in my heart to pay the price of blood, sweat, and tear, and am now proceeding with the necessary daily
installments.
I realize that my team is no stronger than I-the individual athlete.
Therefore, I make the following personal commitment.
I will keep my faith with my God, my teammates, and myself. I will pay the price of heat and grime, sweat and fatigue, aches and blisters, so that my teammates may keep faith in me. I will expect to win, but I will not demanded that winning be easy. I strongly believe that I will be a better athlete because of this personal commitment and the world will be a better world because of me.
I will not forget that even though I may sometimes lose, I will never become a loser:

I AM AN INDIAN
