Part 2 of 2 – What folks that Coach and Mentor our Davis Reitzel offer up on this impressive πŸ‘ Young Man

The invites have been sent out to a number of Folks in the community who get to spend time around the Young Man πŸ‘¨ I labeled Gifted .

I will add them to this part of the Post πŸ“« as I hear back from people….

Ben Tickle offers up -All around, natural athlete! I am convinced that you can put him in any sport and he will be good. Also, just a solid young man!

Our Local Sports Writer Alan Worrell notes πŸ“- You could say he’s one of the most athletic kids I’ve seen come through the halls of CCHS. When I think of Davis, my first thought is exactly what you and I talked about a while back…the kid runs and jumps like a deer.

Assistant Basketball Coach πŸ€ Jason Stockner offers :Davis: Over the last couple of years helping Coach Barnes with Varsity Basketball I’ve gotten to work with Davis and he’s always worked as hard as possible and very coachable. He’s extremely determined to excel in everything like when running sprints for basketball he wants to be first every single time. I know he’ll be successful in whatever he chooses to do in life because of his drive and work ethic. Awesome young man.

Varsity Basketball πŸ€ Coach Anthony Barnes :

Davis is a freakish athlete, he is too date the most competitive player I have had the privilege too coach , any drill or any competition we do he does not want to be second period ! And very rare if he does.

Varsity Soccer ⚽️ Coach Forrest Johnson adds –

Davis is one of the most hard-working athletes I’ve had. He always pushes himself to the max that he can do. He never stops running and hustling on the soccer field. He has been on the all district and all region teams 2 of his 3 varsity seasons. He is outstandingly athletic in many ways. But I would honestly have to say my favorite quality that he brings to the soccer program is his positive attitude. Through these past three years of having him, he has never complained. This past year, he had to play so many positions (even goalie) and he unselfishly handled it and played extremely well in the process. I’m happy to have such a good person and athlete in our program.

Assistant Basketball πŸ€ Coach Kris Richardson adds :

Davis is probably one of the hardest working young men I know. I’ve known him since around 4th grade. He has always been very athletic, but as he has gotten older, his athleticism seems to have exploded. As you say, he runs and jumps like a deer. He has a motor that NEVER stops……EVER!!!!
To this day and even at a young age, all he wants to do is press full court in basketball because he knows he will never get tired and the other team will. If I had one complaint about Davis, it would be that I wish he was meaner kid on the court…haha. He and Ethan have a friendly rivalry, and both hate losing to each other. I believe they would actually die trying to win at whatever they are playing because of their competitive drive. On top of just being a 3 sport star, he excels in the classroom also. He has a 4.5 GPA??? does governor school on top of his work at CCHS. He is a yes mam/no mam kid, you know, the kind you want your daughter to bring home. He has a fantastic set of parents that we are fortunate to call our friends!
