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

Josh Allen - QB for the Buffalo Bills. He’s watched how hard he has worked all his life to be where he is now. He has witnessed in recent years how his mind is set to win a superbowl- and he’s gotten real close. He tries to follow his footsteps and not give up during difficult times.


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

My proudest moment was when he decided to go back to play football after a severe leg injury during last year football season. It has been really hard for him to overcome his fear of getting hurt again. He’s brave and resilient.
