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

The process, he has fallen in love with the process of where he wants to be and won’t let anyone get in between him and where he wants to get to.


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

Family friend who played in the big leagues for 16 years because of how much of a mentor he has been to my son and my son has been shown what he can reach and how the sky is the limit for someone like him.


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

Seeing him overcome adversity during his junior year season. He’s was faced with an entirely new coaching staff, an injury that put him out for half the season, and he still managed to be a leader on and off the field. Showing up for practices in a walking boot and doing whatever he could do to “show up”. I also am super proud of how he brings his faith into the game and onto the field with him.
