I have had the pleasure to work with incredible coaches growing up, and each one will tell you how passionate I am. My UTR doesn't reflect what kind of player I am and my abilities. I am the player who will show up to the courts even if it's raining in the hopes of getting some training in; I am the player if I see any of my teammates down, I will try to motivate them. I will never give up and give 100% in each match. I had to overcome many obstacles in my career, and I don't look at them as a negative but as a lesson to make me stronger.
Many of you know Dave Borelli. I was one of the lucky players to have him in my life. Two weeks before he passed away, he told me something that will stick with me forever: "Adam, don't let anyone ever bully you again. You are an amazing player who will prove all who doubted you wrong." I am determined to make him proud and to prove to those who doubted me that I am worthy to be on the same court as many great players!
