I believe my son should be the Athlete of the year because he can do anything he puts his mind to. He does his best at every sport.

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

He loves the fact of the team setting. The encouragement that the guys give them and the hard work they put in to make things happen.

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

I believe that my little brother inspires my son on and off the field because my son looks up to him and they work together on my son getting better and better.

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

Seeing my son play any sport because I know he try’s his hardest.
