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

Competing…. There is nothing like it. Playing baseball is a team sport but you have individual stats. We win as a team but I compete with the best and can’t to beat their stats.


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

“My grandfather”… “He passed away before I was born, but I love to hear the stories about him. I want to be selected as SEC all America's in 2 positions like my Grandfather and play professionally. He inspires me to reach my dreams. “


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

As a mom you see them win and lose, but it’s in those moments you see how they truly respond. My proudest moment is probably one no one else even noticed. After losing a great game (and of course playing against the refs too 😂) I saw him console his teammates…. BUT the part I’m most proud of is he walked up to the winning coach, who acted all crazy after winning, and still congratulated him and said good game. That takes humility, integrity and sportsmanship.
