He's a kind, respectful young man, takes his role of a student-athlete very seriously, and is the ultimate teammate. Ayden is always coachable and open-minded, which has led to continuous development since day one. He is also the first one to step up and volunteer whenever a coach or player is in need. Ayden brings positive energy and chemistry to our JV team on a daily basis. Congrats Ayden!

Awesome job, Alec and Wheeler!
