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

EJ loves when he plays against good competition.


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

My parents inspired me to play football. My father was a really good athlete and I wanted to be like him. And my mother pushed me to keep going.


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

What makes me the most proudest is when I watch EJ play and he makes a good play or scores a touchdown he gets so excited and his face lights up. And you hear the crowd screaming his name?
