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

My son loves the challenge and excitement of the game. He enjoys pushing himself to get better every day, whether it’s mastering a new skill or competing with his teammates. What he loves most is being part of a team, the friendships he’s built, and the feeling of accomplishing something together. The sport gives him confidence, discipline, and a way to express his passion


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

My older cousin and my whole family are all football players. We come from a football playing family. We have produced over 14 nfl players out of our family tree. Phillip Buchanon and javon kearse are just a few names. And I myself have played jr college ball as well.


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

One moment that made me especially proud of my son playing football was when he showed leadership during a tough game. Instead of getting frustrated when the team was behind, he encouraged his teammates, kept his head up, and made a big play that turned the game around. Seeing him show heart, teamwork, and determination in that moment made me proud, not just of his skills, but of the young man he’s becoming.
