Coach’s quote: “Aiden is one of two new senior members that was welcomed into our club this year. He has stepped up in a big way by being our main tank in OW2. Aiden has a ton of confidence and passion in OW2. He is always one to be vocal and communicate his actions in game, but also to get our club noticed throughout the school. You can always spot him or Deven wearing the FH ESports logo anywhere in our building. Aiden also has classes in media which I hope he pursues in some manner due to the charisma he brings to anything that he works on. By far, Aiden was one of the most pleasant surprises that we have had all year and I know that he wished he joined sooner to take in more of the excitement of ESports. On a side note: the team and I know when Aiden is in the zone for that he will come up with the most outrageous sayings or odd sounds when he is on fire in-game.” – Forest Hills Team Manager Ben Grove
