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

Learning and developing new skills to be the best. The interaction with other teammates, sharing ideas and supporting each other. Accepting criticism. Giving all they have to achieve to be the best and be successful in life.


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

Parents, Grandparents and Coaches are my biggest cheerleaders. Paying attention and listening before speaking. Accepting all challenges because failing is NOT an option. Not afraid to ask for help if needed. Everyone opinion matters.


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

Donte had got hurt during a football game. But he listened and did everything the Doctor said to do and did his Physical Therapy never missing a day. He came back better and more fierce full and won. He stepped out side of his comfort zone and challenged himself. And he is exceeding better than ever in football, wrestling and soccer. I am so proud of him becoming the best that he can be.
