What do they love most about playing their sport(s)?

Ace loves everything about baseball. He enjoys learning new skills by watching how the professionals field the ball. His favourite position is 1st baseman and catcher. He enjoys hanging out with teammates and cheering them on if it’s his turn to sit on the bench or giving them encouragement if they miss a play.


Who inspires them—on or off the field—and why?

His coaches inspire him the most. He looks up to them for advice on how to make a play, how to get the most power out of his swing, or what he should practice at home to improve his skills. Another person who inspires him is Freddie Freeman. He enjoys watching how he plays first base and also how calm, cool, and collected he is when the pressure is on.


What’s one moment in their athletic journey that makes you proudest?

Just the fact that he comes to the diamond ready to learn or play every time. No complaints whatsoever. He is a great teammate who cheers when a big play is made or tells them to shake it off if his teammate misses a play. He is always wanting to learn new skills by watching YouTube and then practicing at home.
