Taylor

I think that my kid deserves youth after the year because of how hard he strives to be the best and how it separates him from the rest.

What is Youth Athlete of the Year?

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

They love their sport because they have to be competitive and push themselves to do things out of their comfort zone, and they love the work that gets put into it. They love the process, not just the result, and they are in love with getting better and proving to themselves that they can do things that seem impossible.


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

On the field, I would say that elite track athletes like Noah Lyles, Usain Bolt, and Mondo Duplantis inspire him. And off the field, I would say that his parents inspire him because of their well-driven minds and their obsession with being the best they can possibly be.


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

Winning their first national championship by a lot while still having humility, shaking the hand of the person who got second, congratulating everybody who competed with them, and making sure that everyone who helped put on the track meet felt appreciated. And made sure to try and be a light at the track meet.
