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

He's been playing sports since the age of 4. Started off with soccer, then football and basketball and finally track in middle school. He is very competitive so when he hears his name being cheered on from the crowd, it pushes him to finish strong and win. Playing football, basketball and running track is his passion. It keeps him focused, on the right path and falling short in the outside world.


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

His god brother who passed away September 30, 2021. He was more of a big brother. He was his biggest supporter and before he passed away, he told Malakye to keep playing and show the world who he is. That one day he is going to make it big. Though he wouldn't be here to watch him physically, he will forever be cheering him on.


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

Malakye was 6 and it was his 2nd year playing for the Bluffton Bulldogs football league. When Malakye was handed the ball and made his 1st touchdown, it was an epic moment. He was unstoppable and from there, he was a force to be reckon with. He did so good that season, he earned his nickname Beastmode because of his speed and showing out to his fullest potential. He was named MVP for the season!! We knew at that time, he was destined to be great in the years coming
