“Stephen is quiet, but he will cut your heart out in the last 200 meters of a race. Then he’ll turn around and hug you after crossing the finish line. He’s been a contributing member to five state championship teams, but he never brags or boasts. He’s the classiest champion I’ve ever encountered.”

Andrew Tripp

U-32 Coach
