Both Jalen’s Mom and Dad are who inspires him to be the dedicated and passionate player that he is and continues to aspire to be. He sees how his parents foster a love for baseball and provide valuable support through both his successes and failures. They have both taught him the value of working hard and never giving up.
Witnessing Jalen display excellent sportsmanship and encouraging his teammates who struggle during a game is one of many moments that makes me proud. He constantly demonstrates character, effort and love for the game. He is not just a remarkable athlete but more importantly he is a remarkable kid!
