At the beginning of this summer, I never imagined this journey would happen, but I followed my heart, and I’m so glad I did. Along the way, I learned countless lessons and built friendships and memories that I’ll always cherish. From the high school athletes to the 5th graders, every single one of you made this summer special.
For me, it has never been about recognition. It has always been about putting the athletes first. Seeing kids who just needed an opportunity finally get their chance has been the most rewarding part of it all. Sometimes all someone needs is for someone to believe in them.
The kind messages from parents and athletes over the past few days have meant more than you’ll ever know. Thank you for your trust, your support, and for allowing me to be a small part of your journey.
I just want to say thank you for an unforgettable summer.
