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

Marcus' mom and dad inspire him the most and he does have some favorite sports players like Ronaldo that he looks up too. He is also very inspired by Shaquille O'Neal's story....coming up from a low income household, putting in the hard work, having his dad push him, teach him and not let him give up. Always having a goal of GREATNESS and PERSEVERANCE and accepting nothing less than the BEST. This is Marcus' attitude towards everything. Marcus' mom and dad always push him towards this high level


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

Marcus is able to juggle being an excellent student in school while masterfully excelling in all his sports. He is 7 years old and skipped first grade. He got accepted into Mensa (High IQ Society), Johns Hopkins Center for Talented Youth and Davidson Institute. He even received a letter from our congressman acknowledging his excellent achievements at his young age. We are so proud that he can be such an amazing athlete and can transcend in his schooling. He keeps astonishing us everyday!
