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

Liam would say he loves playing sports because it’s a competition with himself to be better everyday. He loves the resiliency he is building in character with every season.


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

His dad. He and his dad spend so much time together from doing drills to exercise plans to mental toughness and just in the yard playing catch.


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

Liam was born with a Tracheoesophageal fistula and he never lets it slow him down. He has to manage his diet more than most children his age and always has a positive attitude with the countless doctors appointments, scopes and surgeries he’s had over the years.
