He consistently brings unwavering commitment and effort to everything he does, striving for excellence not just for himself, but for the entire team. His relentless drive to be the best isn't just a goal- it's his greatest passion
I believe he drew inspiration from his stepfather, Jason. They met about six years ago, and Jason took him under his wing without hesitation. Having served in the military, Jason taught him the importance of being respectful, kind, honest, and responsible. Under his guidance, he also learned to never give up and to always strive to be his very best.
The one moment that sticks out in our mind is the 1st time Miguel qualified to run in the Indiana State Middle School Championship in Terre Haute IN. It was such a joyous moment and we saw his face full of joy and sense of accomplishment from his effort and hardwork. We were filled with such happiness and a sense of full fillment in our son's Cross Country career.
