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

I'm not sure what he loves about playing sports. He didnt want anything to do with them at one point in time! Now he plays or watches them as anytime they are on!


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

I'm not sure who inspires Mason, but I can tell you Mason inspires me along with so many others. Mason has done so many things that I never thought he would do in a million years. Like making baskets, catching footballs, and bowling on his own. His newest venture is making Autism bracelets. Just because Mason plays on a team built around special needs kids, doesn't mean he can't enjoy these sports like his typical peers


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

There are MANY moments that make us proud like making his first basket, bowling a strike, catching his first football, and going to his first NFL game. Just Mason being Mason is what makes me his mother the proudest!
