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

Challenging himself to do better than he has in the past and, of course, the friends on his teams.


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

Ken Griffey Jr because he was the first big MLB player he followed and he was so good. His mom because she always pushes him to do better and never misses a game or practice.


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

No matter what is happening around him, he is always there to boost his teammates up. He never has anything negative to say and is great at turning attitudes around in times of difficulty.
