- Comment: the red-link on his middle school is unlikely to ever be an approved article unless there are multiple independent, secondary, reliable sources. If there is an article on the school district, a middle school might be included, but at most the red link would probably only be a re-direct. Looking otherwise promising so far. --Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 21:59, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
Article is new enough, prose size at 2897 characters is long enough, start-class, is well-referenced with 16 appropriate inline linked citations. One offline source accepted per WP:AGF. Hook facts stated in article, referenced by two citations. References properly formatted. Sources appropriately paraphrased; no evidence of WP:COPYVIO using Earwig. Hook properly formatted and hooky--two superlative honours, (unusually) in different professional sports. QPQ completed. In general, well-written, informative, and interesting. Good to go.
