King

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

He loves the competition. The bigger the stage the better he plays. Secondly, the comradery with teammates. They have truly built a brotherhood. King is a very inquisitive kid. He always has questions about old players from the 80s and 90s. Their are so many aspects of sports that have caught Kings attention it is hard to encapsulate it into one area. Between Baseball and Football he loves it all. Lol

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

King draws inspiration from his grandparents, father, mother, sister, brother and God. God has blessed King with size and ability that other kids his age do not possess. At 5'5 180lbs wearing a 10.5 shoe at 9 is definitely blessed. Secondly, his family structure provides understanding an inspiration to attain and achieve greatness giving God the glory. We can do all things thru him which strengthens me. Kendall kings older sister is an exceptional athlete and always pushes him to be better.

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

There are several moments. It's hard to pick just one. The way King played at YNC last year against the talent his age group in the nation. He was a man amongst boys. Helping lead his team to the National championship game. Though they lost 24 20 he was a bull in a China shop reeking havoc. Best part about it he was extremely humble and thrilled just to be playing in Florida. Secondly, when he hit his 1st homerun out the park at 7. It was such an amazing moment. It nearly brought me to tears.
