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

He love the wins. He loves the dynamics of his team playing as a team and winning because that shows the unity and that they succeed together.


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

I think his grandfather do because he is no longer with us but that’s where the love of the game came from him. Him teaching him the game, watching the games and him watching him play the game.


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

One moment that makes me proud is when my son got the wind knocked out of him at 9 years old on the field and he didn’t give up because he knew his team needed him. That was an honorable moment for him at such a young age.
