Cougar Spotlight
All my life I have always had a passion for God and sports. I felt that sports-the awards, achievements, championships-defined who you were. About 6 years ago,
I hit a very hard time in my life with family health issues and personal struggles that made me feel alone. It was then that I fully gave my heart and soul to God
and began to realize sports were just a game and not a way of life. It led me to Clearwater Christian College where I learned more about God which strengthened my
walk with Him.

At CCC, I found more than knowledge about God, I found friends that I have bonded with unlike anywhere else. I found teammates that accepted me unconditionally.
CCC not only increased my passion for God, but it has given me the chance to play the game I love. I now have the opportunity, as the Captain, to lead a team of
guys I am honored to be a part of. As a team, we have overcome many obstacles and have witnessed that you can overcome anything with God on your side. Last year's
2nd place finish at the NCCAA World Series proved that!
I will always remember where I have come from and I will always remember the special friendships made at CCC. I realize that I still have far to go in my faith
but I want to encourage others that no matter what the struggle -big or small- God is always there. I have a saying "STAY STRONG" when I face issues, and I know
that I can stay strong because with God I am strong. TOGETHER anything is possible.
