Josiah Chavez, Staff Writer

My name is Josiah Chavez and I'm a part of the Hoover’s baseball team. All my life I have been a very athletic person and have always been outside playing sports or riding BMX. I just can’t stand it when I’m trapped inside all day doing nothing. My whole family has always been very active, after all my whole family raced BMX or at least played in some sort of sport.

I was born in New Mexico, and I moved to San Diego after my dad got stationed to Miramar Base. I later moved to City Heights after my parents separated and my dad was constantly being stationed to different bases. When I started high school I was first at Kearny for freshman and sophomore year. By my junior year I had decided to go live with my dad in North Carolina where I had experienced a completely different atmosphere. While I lived there I had been on my school’s wrestling and baseball team. Baseball is something that I believe helped me get through a lot of the tough situations life had to throw at me. By the end of the school year I had made the decision to move back to San Diego to live with my mom which is why I now go to this school.
