SCHOOL: Amherst Regional
CLASS: Senior
SPORT: Boys soccer
POSITION: Midfielder
FAVORITE TEAM: “I lived in Pittsburgh for a while. I’m a big Pittsburgh Penguins and Pittsburgh
Steelers fan.”
FAVORITE ATHLETE: Sidney Crosby
WHY CROSBY?: “I don’t play hockey, but I grew up watching Sid. I lived in Pittsburgh when he was drafted to the Penguins. My dad and I still call him ‘The Kid’. He’s always ‘Sid the Kid’. Those memories of watching the Cup runs – I cried when they won back to back. His dedication to the sport. I love his personality. I love the way he plays. I remember one commentator said one game that he’s like the most skilled grinder in the league, which really describes him super well because you see him working in the trenches so hard. I just love that about him.”
FAVORITE FOOD: Kale
WHY DO YOU LOVE KALE?: “It’s so good. I always put kale in a pan with some butter. The butter may make it a little less healthy but it’s so good. I really just love the way it tastes.”
