Why did you decide to give baseball a try? I have always been throwing a ball and swinging a bat.

How often do you practice? During the season, about 3-4 times a week. In the off season, whenever I get the chance to throw the ball with my older brother outside.

What have you learned about teamwork? We win as a team and we lose as a team. We have to work together if we want a shot at winning.

How do your teammates make practice fun? We cheer each other on and push each other to do our best.

What is the best part of a game? When I hit a homerun or don’t get struck out What is one thing you do after a good game? Buy snacks at the snack stand before going home

What are you looking forward to doing next in your sport? Getting better at pitching and being more of a leader to my team

Do you play any other sports? Football for TPR for the East Houma Stellers
