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

Ayden love the challenge, the teamwork, and the opportunity to improve every day. Being on the field teaches discipline, leadership, and perseverance while building lasting friendships. He enjoy competing, encouraging their teammates, and giving their best effort in every game. More than winning, he love the excitement of the sport and the confidence it has helped him develop both on and off the field.


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

Ayden's biggest inspiration is his cousin EJ Crowell, and especially the people who encourage him to work hard, stay humble, and never give up. Ayden also look up to his coaches because they teach discipline, teamwork, and the importance of giving his best every day. Ayden admire athletes who lead by example, but he's inspired most by those who show kindness, perseverance, and strong character both on and off the field.


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

The moment that makes me the proudest isn't a touchdown or a win—it's watching my son refuse to give up. Seeing him grow in confidence, encourage his teammates, listen to his coaches, and keep fighting even when the game is tough shows how much Ayden has matured. Those moments remind me that football is building not only a better athlete but also a young person with character, resilience, and heart. My son is a great sportsmanship and overall quick learner like his Mom.
