In his own words...

“There were many opportunities for people to give up on me. And yet, nobody did… When I struggled, people invested in me. When I disappointed people, they challenged me.  When I doubted myself, they believed in me. And when I considered walking away, they pulled me a little bit closer.”

-- Alexander Rodriguez, '26
