What is Youth Athlete of the Year?

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

What I love most is that even when they are feeling down because a play didn't come out the way they wanted, they lift themselves and go for it again. Every out, every strikeout.


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

Michaela Edenfield . Michaela, because she's always looked up to her as a catcher, since she is one too. She loves how she carried her teammates when she played for FSU. How she calmed her pitchers. Off the field, she was a great student as well.


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

My Maya has always been a wonderful athlete, but what I love the most and makes me proud is when another parent comes up to you and tells you that your daughter went up to the other player when she was down and started to lift her. It's not when she made her first over the fence. It's when you know you have made your daughter a great supporter for others.
