Hayden Cross's Sports Career

Hayden has played basketball for Edgewood for 7 years. He played 6th grade basketball in 2017, 7th grade 2018, and for 8th grade 2019. When he got to 8th grade, he knew that he wanted to play in high school. But what would it take to play at that level? What would he have to do in order to improve his chances of making the high school team? Hayden said, “ you need to put in hard work, and sacrifice your time. You need to be smart with the ball, take good shots, and hustle.” He knew he had to work even harder than he has in the past years. From those past years, he has gotten stronger and better at basketball.

Hayden has played baseball since he was 3 years old, and he left baseball when he was 13 years old. He played for Whiteland, black bulls, Astros x2, and the Prospects x2. Since he was a little baby he has loved baseball, and used to play it all the time everywhere. But once again  what would it take to play at that level? What would he have to do in order to improve his chances of making the travel  team? Hayden said, “You have to love baseball and you have to practice everyday you have to learn the play.” He knew when he was about 10 years old that he had to work really hard and keep practicing in the garage, and outside.
