What is Youth Athlete of the Year?
Learn MoreKellen loves everything about playing sports—the competition, being part of a team, and always pushing himself to get better. Whether it’s basketball, football, or baseball, he brings an energy and excitement that is contagious. He loves encouraging his teammates, celebrating big moments, and giving his all every time he plays. His personality shines on the field and court, and he’s the kind of kid teammates love playing with and parents genuinely love watching!
What fires Kellen up is the competition, the energy of the crowd, and the chance to make a big play for his team. He thrives when the game is on the line and loves hearing his teammates and family cheering him on. Whether it’s making a great tackle, sinking a big shot, or getting a hit, his excitement is contagious. But what really drives him is being part of something bigger than himself—playing hard for his teammates, never giving up, and leaving everything he has on the field or court.
The moments that make me most proud aren’t always the touchdowns, baskets, or big plays—it’s watching Kellen get knocked down and come right back ready for more. He plays with so much heart. Whether his team is winning or losing, he keeps encouraging his teammates, hustling, and giving everything he has. Watching him grow from a little boy who simply loved sports into a confident, passionate teammate is my proudest moment. The player he is becoming is exciting, but the teammate he is becoming!
