1.       “I’ve played basketball for as long as I could walk, as part of the St. George grade school and junior high teams before joining the Warrior family as a shooting guard. It’s been a great decision with, of course, winning the 3-point contest being the highlight so far.”
Age: 16
School: St. Michael High School (That was a quote from Jordan Long)

2. “(Theodore) Roosevelt said, ‘Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checked by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.’ Our antagonist wrestles with us, sharpening our strength and nerve; in essence, hardship only makes us stronger. You must be willing to stick your neck out, to take risks, to accomplish great things.”(that was a teen take from Nick doglas)

3.  “It helps me with school and all the stuff that makes my life stressful. Whether I’m in the water or on stage or just playing the ukulele in my room, it helps me relax a lot and helps me realize my problems aren’t that big.” (a teen take from Michele Moore)
