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

Paul’s favorite part of baseball is the sound of the ball hitting the bat. The distinctive “ping” sound is what he looks forward to the most and seeing just how far the ball will go. He loves rooting for his teammates and the excitement and celebration of a win with a grin ear to ear. With his glove in one hand and his heart in the other, he loves the game and the anthem that starts it.


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

His dad and his brothers. They built their very own batting cage in the backyard and spend all their free time there practicing. They even built their own pitching mound. Paul has a dedication to baseball and thrives to improve his skills.


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

Paul joined his first baseball team this past spring and moved up to the next league after attending his first practice. His devotion and commitment to baseball that we’ve witnessed in just this short time is astonishing. Watching the kids celebrate a win is pure happiness. Their smiles, their high-fives, the way they cheer for each other- it’s the best part of the game.
