Mike hates to lose and he possesses a tremendous work ethic and desire to be the best in everything he does.

His competitiveness and "never say die" attitude help propel Mike to a leader- ship role on the team. Off the field, Mike is a thoughtful and caring person. This was evident when Mike led team members in a sandbagging effort this past summer to help flood victims.
