What is Youth Athlete of the Year?
Learn MoreCharles loves the competition, the brotherhood with his teammates, and the feeling of working hard to get better. He loves being challenged, making big plays, and doing whatever his team needs from him.
Charles is inspired by the people who believe in him,his family, coaches, and teammates. On the field, he is motivated by competition, getting better every day, and doing his part to help his team succeed. Off the field, he is inspired to work just as hard in the classroom and to be someone younger athletes can look up to. He knows talent can take you far, but hard work, character, and staying humble are what truly make you successful.
The moment that makes me proudest isn’t one touchdown, one big play, or one win,it’s watching Charles become the kind of athlete who understands that being talented is only part of it. Seeing him work hard, stay coachable, support his teammates, and continue to push himself in the classroom and on the field makes me the proudest. I’m definitely the loud mom in the stands yelling for him to do his best and hit harder, but what means the most is watching him grow into a a great humble young man.
