Bio

What is your major?

Secondary Education History and Bible

When did you start playing basketball?

4th grade

What is your favorite sports team and/or player?

San Antonio spurs because they play as a team and there is no one who is selfish. I also love their defensive energy. Stephen Curry because he is humble and an exciting person to watch play. He has faith in his team, but also has faith in his ability.

Highlight of your sports career?

State track meet, doing the 4 by 200 and getting dominated, but it was still fun since it was state. Playing in many basketball tournaments and also playing college basketball with my father. My favorites highlights were when me and my father made a connection/play for one or the other to score.

What type of growth have you seen in yourself through your years of playing?

From when I first picked up a basketball until now, my senior year of college, I have seen much growth in myself. Through coaches, friends, and especially my father, I have been pushed to become who I am today. The growth that I have seen has been a steady increase, I would say, both in basketball IQ, abilities, and submission. When I say submission, I mean submitting to authority and trying to play the way coach wants to play while also playing the way I play. It’s important to be yourself and use your own skills as a player, but it is also important to play the way the coach wants you to play. I believe this is the key to succeeding in a higher level competition. Through my many years of basketball, this has seemed to be one of the hardest things for me to do. Today, I have become a much more submitted player and have used my skills to benefit players around me, and to also do what coach wants me to do.

Name an individual who has impacted you the most in your playing career, and how they have influenced you.

Without a doubt, my father has been the number one individual who has impacted me in basketball and in my spiritual life. He has helped me become the basketball player that I am today (his genes sure have helped) and also the Christian man that I am today. I mean, he even set me up with the woman that is now my wife. I couldn’t ask for a better Godly man and a better coach than my father.

Favorite passage of scripture and why?

My favorite passage is probably Psalms 119: 9-16:

“How can a young person stay on the path of purity? By living according to your word.
I seek you with all my heart;
    do not let me stray from your commands.
I have hidden your word in my heart
    that I might not sin against you.
Praise be to you, Lord;
    teach me your decrees.
With my lips I recount
    all the laws that come from your mouth.
I rejoice in following your statutes
    as one rejoices in great riches.
I meditate on your precepts
    and consider your ways.
I delight in your decrees;
    I will not neglect your word.”

I love this passage because it shows the key to living a Godly life. Stay true to His Word and you will not fall.
