What is Youth Athlete of the Year?
Learn MoreWhat he love most about playing his sport is being part of a team, having fun with his teammates, and always challenging myself to get better. He enjoys the excitement of the game, working hard, and making great memories while doing something he love.
He is inspired both on and off the field by the admiration of his little brother. Every time his little brother cheers for him when he steps up to bat or celebrates when he makes a great play, it motivates him to work harder and be the best athlete and role model he can be. Another great role model is his dad. He traians with him all the time and helps him get better on and off the field.
One moment that makes me especially proud was when his team was losing 10 to 0 with only 2 innigs left and many of his teammates were feeling discouraged. Instead of giving up, he began encouraging and motivating them, both on and off the field. Little by little, his positive attitude became contagious, and the team came together and made an incredible comeback where he hit the game tying rum and later scored the game winning run. He is an incredibly intelligent child with an amazing heart.
