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

What i love the most about playing my sport is the brotherhood that comes with it. When playing this game you end up creating bonds with people that end up proving to be unbreakable. These bonds end up becoming some of the most important things in your life.

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

Who inspires me off the field is my mom. She inspires me because she shows me what it means to face adversity so even when things get tough she has shown me time after time to push through and never give up.

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

One moment in my athletic journey that makes me the proudest is when i came back from being injured and being able to give my all out on the field no matter the outcome.
