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

Jake lives and breathes soccer. He loves being part of a team—it’s like a second family to him. What really excites him is the strategy behind the game; he’s always thinking through every pass and play. The energy, the competition, the challenge—it lights him up. Win or lose, he’s happiest on the field, fully immersed in something he’s passionate about.


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

Jake has looked up to Ronaldo his whole life—not just for his incredible skill and focus on the field, but for who he is off it. Ronaldo avoids drama, puts his family first, and gives back through charity. He’s donated millions, helped fund cancer treatments, and supports causes like children’s hospitals and disaster relief. Jake sees him as the full package: a disciplined athlete, a generous role model, and someone who proves greatness comes with character too.


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

Jake recently faced a tough setback in his soccer journey that shook his confidence. But after a day or two, he chose growth over frustration. Instead of staying down, he used it as motivation—studying what he could learn and committing to coming back stronger. He started putting in extra time on the field and focused hard on building a stronger mindset. It really showed his resilience and determination.
