I am excited to announce that our Athlete Spotlights are back! Our 70th athlete is an outstanding person and athlete. He is genuine in everything he does. Whether it is treating a younger athlete as his little brother, showing up early, treating others with kindness, attempting a heavy set in the weight room, or going all out on a speed skill, everything this athlete does is authentic. It’s time to meet our newest athlete spotlight!
