per the Fergus Falls Journal:

Kwapinski played at a level most high school athletes can only fantasize about. During his tenure on the Minnesota Golden Gophers football team from 1999 to 2003, he starting 23 games in a row at one point as a defensive tackle.

But his passion for the medical industry what was really steered him through college. At first, Kapinski wanted to be a physical therapist but got burned out on the field after a few years.

After he received his undergraduate degree in biology in 2003, Kwapinski finished his football career that fall and moved on to pharmacy school, a shot in the dark considering he had never worked in a pharmacy and wasn’t sure he would enjoy the work.

Kwapinski’s passion for Gopher football has not diminished in the decade since leaving the team. He has taught his children Gopher cheers and has taken his family to several games, instilling in them his love of University of Minnesota football.
