A GOALIE WAS BORN

Komi Kamal was born on May 24th. He was born In Long Beach, California. There he was born to a loving family. His family wasn't the richest by any means especially with prices of California, but They did well enough for themselves. As Komi was growing up he had 1 older brother named Jordan. His mom wanted a girl, but Dad said they did not have enough Money to support another kid. So him and his brother It was. As you could Imagine their dad had big plans for him and his brother. As Their dad was actually well known in long beach for his play through school. And being an academic sound student at the same time. Yeah Komi and his brother had a lot to live up to.

As both him and his brother were in every sport possible It felt like. They both wondered how they even had the time to do these sports, but their dad was adamant about being involved in every sport possible. So Komi and Jordan would play every sport their dad signed them up for. Jordan ended up being a heck of an athlete himself as he would be all over the field in football and in basketball just dominating. Where as for when Komi started growing up too, he just was more of a role player in every sport he played. As he actually was the backup Quarterback for his little league team when their starter was sick and couldn't play one day. Komi stepped in at QB for the first time and he absolutely stunned the other team. His ability to throw and accurately at that was remarkable. Komi had found his spot in Football. Basketball just never worked for Komi, but he still played It to always be around his brother. 
As time went on they continued in their respective sports. Komi was already being put into the starting QB role by his 8th grade year as he just dominated 7th grade football. So when Komi was starting at QB his brother was playing both sides of the ball at WR and CB. As they would make the playoffs every year, but just always coming up short. By Komi's end of his sophomore year, He was receiving calls from Schools Interested In His talents. Where as his brother Jordan was killing It In Basketball and with being 6'6 he was gaining attention himself. Komi was 6'2 and playing PG for the basketball team as he also started for the basketball team in 8th grade! Komi was just an amazing passer and that talent transcended across all levels. By Komi's Senior he helped him and his team go for a state title, but they would fall short again, this Time In the Championship game. Komi and Jordans football season was over. 

Beginning of Komi's interest In Hockey


As said before Komi played every sport Possible. Hockey was one of them. during this time Komi was still that role player kid and he actually got put into the same situation. Being the backup Goalie. He would also get to play other positions at times, but Goalie was his main Focus as he liked the pressure of having to stop someone else from scoring. Komi loved being In control of his destiny and Goalie allowed him to do that just like Quarterback. Though He wasn't the best by any means, He still gave 100% effort every game out there. Once he got to Middle School he really only did It as a side thing When his friends wanted to play it at times. When Komi Was graduating he had made his intention of commitment to Stanford University to play football. As his 4 years at Stanford would never amount to anything winning wise other than regular season success. Komi had asked the hockey team If they'd let him play Backup Goalie. Stanford allowed this as Komi said he'd quit If he couldn't play Hockey at least a few times. Stanford would of stood their ground but didn't see It as a bad thing. They allowed Komi to play. 

As Komi would only play a few games as Stanford hockey didn't play that many their selves. Komi would impress some of these coaches with his ability to make saves and just his reaction time as well. From there Komi would obviously finish out his Football days and be wondering if the NFL was truly what he wanted. He had his degree, but he really wanted to give Hockey a good shot before he just tried to get a job. So with help from coaches and his dad. They found the Victory Hockey League. They saw they allowed anyone to enter into their league within reason of course. So Komi signed himself up and Is set to make his debuts in the minor league. Komi hopes to hone in His Quarterbacking skills to be used In between the pipes. Komi may not be living His fathers dream, but he's living a dream of his!
