He says the way he inspires his son and pour into them speaks volumes about his character.


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

When JayZon Mae his 1st touchdown on his mighty mite team. He was 5 years old and the coach was sketchy about giving him the ball even though he knew he was the fastest on the team he was one of the youngest . They end up hiking him the ball to try him out and he ran a 50 yard touchdown nobody could stop him I was so proud I ran on the sideline with him.
