I met most of my great friends through sports. Collin, Ben, and Jack who live in another state, but I still talk to each of them daily.
What’s your most cringe-worthy sports moment / biggest failure:
My most embarrassing moment was in Basketball in 6th grade were I missed 1 out of 2 free throws in the last seconds. Which eventually lost the game for my team. That moment was really tough on me.
