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

Duke runs track and is currently the national champion for 6 year olds in the 800m. He LOVES to compete. Proving to himself that he can do hard things is his favorite.

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

Currently his dad and Noah Lyles. He loves the way the way they work and pay attention to details!

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

Watching him practice is by far my proudest moments because he treats practice like a real meet. He’s coach able in and out of sports and I couldn’t be prouder.
