He loves the camaraderie, the brotherhood and the relationships he’s built over the years, from baseball (his first love), to Rugby (his current love) and recently, wrestling. He also loves the experiences he’s had, the places he’s gotten to visit because of sports and the relationships he’s built and continues to build.
His big brother has always been inspirational. Marcello has always looked up to his big brother. He’s always played what Roscoe played and tried to keep up with him and his friends in sports.
There are many memorable moments, but the best was when his team won the national championship. He kept telling us he was going to play in that game back when he wasn’t even a starter and watching him work his tail off all season, earning the start and then winning MVP of the game was the greatest moment. Because of his hard work, dedication and love for the game, he was invited to play for the U18 USA Eagles. What an honor that was for his family, coaches, teammates and friends.
