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

He loves the physical contact and showing his hitting and tackling skills. He also loves the brothers he’s gained while playing and the different cities we travel to.


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

He’s inspired by his dad. His dad was good in sports but didn’t pursue it. His dad constantly works with him and tells him not to be like him but be better than him because he can do anything as long as he work hard, stay humble and put God first.


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

The moment I was the proudest was when he became quarterback and the leader of his team. He’s so soft spoken and he was down because he was being overlooked for the spot. He’s stayed a team player and his time finally came. Seeing him lead his team to multiple trophies made me extremely proud.
