One moment in Ayden’s athletic journey that makes me proud was when he helped his football team win the championship. It was halftime and his team was down 0-13. He knew he had to change and adapt his game. He did not give up or have a defeated spirit. After half time the coach had him run the ball on the first play and he made a touch down. Then he made a second touch down and made a couple of good blocks winning the game!
