Early years
Lionel Scrimmage was born to parents Jack and Ava Scrimmage on August 4, 2032. Lionel's father worked as an insurance agent for heavy equipment/vehicles for farming and industry and his mother was a crane operator for a local construction company. Lionel had a comfortable upbringing and was known to be a quiet and passeive child. Not very outgoing, he struggled to make friends and so was encouraged by his parents to take up football. Not very athletic and a bit overweight, Lionel was coached on the defensive line in his early years and took a liking to the strategic and technical part of the position in terms of positioing, body control, etc. In high school, he made the varsity squad his freshman year as a defensive tackle. His junior year of high school, Lionel's father was diagnosed with kidney disease and needed a transplant. Lionel struggled with the decision of whether to give up football--and his main opportunity to go to college given his poor grades--and donate part of his kidney to save his father, or to make the self-serving choice to protect his health and future football career. Lionel eventually decided to give up his football future and get tested for an organ match, which in the end came up negative. He continued to look after his ailing father as he finished out his highschool football year as it took over a year to find a suitable match for a kidney transplant. It was not until the summer before Lionel joined Eastern Michigan college that his father was announced helathy after a successful transplant.
College career
"Lionel underwent a significant transformation during his final years of high school and into his freshman year of college. Supporting his father through his illness and confronting hardship for the first time in his life, Lionel became more industrious. At Eastern Michigan, he devoted himself to his dual pursuits of football and kidney disease awareness and prevention. While he did not see much playing time in his freshman year of college, he made the most of his time on the field and the coaches saw significant improvement as he dedicated himself to the physical training aspect of his position much more than he had in high school. This complemented his already strong grasp of the mental and technical aspects of the game. He became a regular contributor in his sophomore season and finished as a key starter and leader of the defensive squad in his junior and senior years.
In addition to his football training, Lionel spent his time in college on his major in communications and in raising money for health philanthropies with his fraternity--Sigma Chi."
