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

They love the competition, growing, and learning. But the biggest lesson we try to teach is taking the highs of winning but also the highs of losing. Gather yourself together and thinking about the what ifs could have been different to turn that into a win.


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

I’m not going to lie, I think and feel that he inspires himself along with a couple other people. He knows what he is capable of and only wants to beat what he has previously done prior.
