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

I Love The Mental and Physical Part of Game. I Love the Intensity and Energy Of Being able to Play and show out for your family doing what you love.


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

On the field My Teammates inspire, because knowing I can lean on them at practice and game is always great feeling to me. And off the field is quite a few who aspire me, Ms.Rose(GrandMother), My Granny, BigChris(Grandad), My Mother. Because I took all of their teaching and made me the man I am today.


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

Not Giving Up, when I real big and obese. It was hard but I ended losing 75lbs since then. And till this day after getting thru that, it’s lets me know that I can get through anything I feel like cause I always had faith I was gonna lose weight and I did by keeping my head on the swivel and always bringing great energy.
