Thank you for generously supporting Riley in this year’s competition. Your support helps empower the V Foundation for Cancer Research and the Why Not You Foundation in their respective missions to save lives and empower today's youth to become tomorrow's leaders.
Riley loves the game for the grind, the big moments, and the chance to grow every time he steps on the field. What drives him most is the thrill of competition and passion for the game. Whether he’s at bat, or on the field, Riley plays with heart and purpose, always striving to be better.
Riley is inspired by Jazz Chisholm because of his energy, confidence, and love for the game. He admires how Jazz plays with swagger, never backs down, and brings excitement to every play. Like Jazz, Riley believes in working hard, having fun, and playing with passion while always staying true to who he is.
A proud moment was Riley overcoming injury and still supporting his team with heart and energy. Even when he couldn’t play, he showed up, supported, and inspired. He returned stronger than ever, earning PG All-State and All-Tournament honors, proving his strength, resilience, and leadership both on and off the field.
