What is Youth Athlete of the Year?
Learn MoreHe loves competing, improving his skills, and battling alongside his teammates. Football gives him the opportunity to challenge himself physically and mentally while working toward a common goal. He takes pride in doing the hard work in the trenches, making plays that help his team succeed, and showing younger athletes what dedication and discipline can accomplish.
His family, coaches, and teammates inspire him the most. His family has taught him to stay humble, work hard, and never take an opportunity for granted. His coaches push him to become a better player and young man, while his teammates motivate him to give his best because he knows they are counting on him. He wants to make everyone who supports him proud.
My proudest moment has been watching him earn six Division I football offers while maintaining a 3.8 GPA. Every offer represents the early mornings, difficult practices, sacrifices, and discipline nobody else sees. What makes me proudest is that success has not changed him—he remains humble, coachable, and committed to his education, family, and teammates.
