Senior James Radvany, May’s Athlete of the Month, started playing baseball at the young age of seven. His dad, who was also a baseball player and led Steinert High School to a state championship, encouraged Radvany to try every sport. Once Radvany picked up a baseball and glove, he had a hard time putting them down. The sport is in his blood and he possesses an inspiring drive for success on the field. He finds his passion and motivation for the game in the relationships he has built with his teammates. “The friendship that Jake, Cole, and I share is really important to the way I play baseball and the success we hope to have this year,” said Radvany, a captain of this year’s team. “We have been friends since freshman year and have become brothers, driving each other to make this last year our best.”
