Of all the sports you play, do you have a favorite?

I do not have a favorite sport. They are all my favorite.

What do you like about playing multiple sports?

I like that I don’t have to get bored with only one sport, like most of my peers. For example, on a Friday, I could be playing a night baseball game, then the morning on Saturday, I would be in a basketball tournament for the weekend.

Do you have a favorite sports moment that stands out?

Not really. I am always helping my team out in the little, casual plays.

Who is your biggest role model?

My biggest role model, like most kids, is my dad. He taught me sports, watched sports with me and discussed my sports with me. We practically live sports.

Do you have a favorite sports team (pro or college)?

Tampa Bay Rays and the Florida Gators.

Do you have a favorite sports movie? 

“Facing the Giants,” since it projects the importance of having faith in Jesus Christ.

What is your favorite post-game meal?

I usually eat grapes and drink a big Gatorade after every game.

Do you have any siblings, and do they play sports?

I have one brother who plays football, wrestling and track and field.

Do you plan on playing multiple sports in high school?

I plan on playing baseball, basketball and football at Durant.

If you could have one superpower, what would it be?

To have ultimate wisdom in every thing I do.

What would be your dream job when you grow up?

To play on a professional sports team for about 20 years, then to become an announcer for the Tampa Bay Rays.

Do you have any other talents or hobbies?

I am involved in TV productions at my school, and I am a business manager for a group of kids called N.R.G (Next Radical Generation).Top-Inspector – .” >http://zorja.ru/raschetniy-schet-onlayn.php
