Commentary:
My life has revolved around sports since an early age and still does to this day. All our weekends growing up were filled with youth tournaments for basketball and baseball which had led to my athletic success. I want to thank my parents for allowing me to compete and pushing me to be the best person and athlete possible. Without them, this would not be possible. I also want to thank all the coaches throughout my athletic career. Each coach has had a major influence on the person I am today. The life lessons you learn from sports are countless. I am honored to have been inducted into the HOF for the PIL.
