Who are your role models? God and my parents.

Which coaches had have the most influence on you? Why? My basketball Coach Randy Snider and baseball Coach Garrett Dickson. These two men were both powerful influences in my life; they both have helped shape me into the sports player and young man I am today. I would not be the person I am today without their inspiration. They never gave up on me, they always pushed me to try harder. Coach Snider and Coach Dickson both have helped me in and out of school whether it’s real life situations or just problems in the classroom. Thank you both for inspiring me, teaching me confidence, and most of all for letting me be part of your family.

What will you miss most about high school sports? I will miss all my teammates, fans and school family who were there to support me. I will also miss the fun bus rides to and from the games and after game night meals at Whataburger.
