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

Mikey loves being able to exemplify unity, hard-work, dedication, meeting new people and learning from some of the best to ever do it. Competing comes natural to Mikey and he loves being able to support other athletes on their journey.


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

Mikey has a strong faith in God and a family foundation that absolutely adores him.


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

The one moment that made his community the proudest was the summer of 2024 when Mikey competed in the Brooks Invitational and within 24 hours the New Balance Nationals Outdoor and the humbleness that was shown in those accomplishments. Mikey always takes time to encourage others to continue on their path and never loose hope.
