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

He said tackling and carrying the ball in football. In baseball he likes all positions but loved pitching. The rush and feeling he gets when he starts to play. Making friends.


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

The reason he says he plays is his older brother (that's also the reason he chose #22) loved watching him when he was young.


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

Scoring outs and touchdowns. One fast ball hit he caught at pitchers mound stands out alot. And 80 yard touchdown he said was his favorite. Always encouraging my team along with himself.
