I like the feeling when I crush the ball and when I make a good play. It makes me feel proud. I like looking at my mom and dad in the stands cheering for me.
My older brother Conner and my mom. Conner because he’s really good at sports and he always works hard and never gives up. I want to be like him and make big plays too. And my mom because she’s always there for me cheering me on and helping me get better.
One moment in Oakley’s athletic journey that makes me the proudest isn’t just one play or game, it’s how he keeps going even when things don’t come easy for him. He never lets that stop him. If something’s hard, he doesn’t back down he just tries even harder. Watching him push himself, keep showing up, and work for it with everything he’s got, that’s what makes me the proudest.
