Grade: 12
School: Whale Branch Early College High School

<b>Kenny Brown</b> was nominated by Shelia Cato for his productive play on the basketball court against Garrett Tech High and Burke High. Kenny took some time recently to answer a few questions.

<b>Q</b><b>: What sports are you involved with and what drew you to that sport?</b>

A: Basketball, my older cousin played basketball and taught me how to play.

<b>Q: What movie inspires you as an athlete?</b>

A: “Love and Basketball.”

<b>Q: What athletes do you try to emulate and why?</b>

A: Kobe Bryant, because of his mentality and work ethic; and James Harden because we are both left handed, so I try and make some of his moves and his playmaking skills.

<b>Q: What life lessons have you learned from sports?</b>

A: That nothing in life is handed to you, you have to work for everything you get. Everything is earned.
