He loves the challenge and intensity of his sports. Whether it’s football or wrestling, he thrives on pushing himself to be better every day. He enjoys the competition, the bond with his teammates, and the feeling of giving his all on the field or mat. For him, it’s not just about winning, it’s about the work, the growth, and the pride that comes from leaving everything out there.
He is inspired by Jesus, who gives him strength, purpose, and humility in everything he does. On the field, he looks up to Jason Kelce for his toughness, leadership, and heart for the game. In wrestling, Wyatt Hendrickson motivates him with his relentless work ethic and dominant style. Each of them shows Kolton what it means to lead with character, stay grounded in faith, and give everything for your team and your goals.
One of his proudest moments in his athletic journey was earning a varsity spot as a freshman in both football and wrestling. Competing at that level so early pushed him to grow fast and step up as a leader. But what means most to him isn’t just starting, it’s being someone his teammates can count on, encouraging them during tough moments and helping them believe in themselves.
