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

He loves competing. And the challenge that comes with it. He tells his teammates all the time the harder you work the easier it gets. His favorite time is game day he feeds off the other team and loves comparing him self to the best on the other side of the feild.


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

As a middle linebacker he likes watching Ray Louis high lights. His favorite player right now is MCCONKY. But I would like to say me. When he was younger I asked him if he wants the truth or to tell him what he wants to hear after a game. He said dad I want the truth, he was 5 he went on to be the most improved player of the year that year. And his mom he sees her still in school at age 40 working on her doctoral degree. And looks up to her as she is his schools assistant principal.


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

There is so many, one year they called him Mr pick 6. He had a pick six off every team in the conference that year. When he was 5 on the tiny might team he blasted this kid blocking for the running back and they scored a touchdown. When he was 7 he was picked to be on a allstar team he was in the wrong group of kids the next age group up and they were all bigger than him so he turned it up hit a kid so hard in the tackle drill that the other kids helmet popped off.
