Linden loves the excitement of the game, the bond with his teammates, and the thrill of making big plays. Whether it’s scoring a touchdown or hitting a home run, he enjoys the challenge, the teamwork, and always pushing himself to be better in both baseball and football.
Linden is inspired by his dad, who pushes him to work hard, stay focused, and never give up. His dad leads by example, showing him what it means to be dedicated, disciplined, and strong—on and off the field.
At a baseball tournament in Kansas City, Kansas, Linden hit a grand slam that put four runs on the board and gave his team the lead. He stayed focused and led with heart and determination. He didn’t give up, lifted his teammates, and showed amazing leadership. That moment proved his growth, strength, and love for the game.
