Zayden

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

This boy eats sleeps and breathes baseball. There isn't a minute that goes by that he isn't pretending something is a ball, a bat or even just playing ball any chance he gets. There isn't an aspect of baseball that he doesn't love. He has tried to play every position from catcher, to pitcher, infield, outfield you name it.

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

Zayden wants to be as great as Jackie Robinson #42, which is the number he wears now. He puts his all into baseball, with hopes of being recruited by a D1 college and inspires to go pro one day. But I would say his coaches inspire him the most, they encourage him so much. If he listens to anyone it is them. Not only is he passionate about baseball he also has a lot of passion as a basketball and football player. Whatever the sport Zayden puts his all into it.

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

I couldn't pin point just one moment that has made me the proudest. He amazes me with his talent, his hunger for the game and his willingness to make it right when he messes up. Always telling his teammates my bad if its a bad throw or the fact that he is big team player and always trying to hype up his teammates. Zayden will always be the number one player in my eyes. I would say his coaches inspire him the most, they encourage him so much. If he listens to anyone it is them.
