Coach’s quote: “Jason was by far one of the oddest surprises of this Spring 2023 season. When he and his brother Joey decided to try out for the OW2 team. Jason has become one of the most lethal DPS players in D2 and we didn’t even know he had these skills. Both brothers work well in Rocket League but they are a great combination together as well in OW2. Both Jason and Joey are always willing to be with our club and I am happy that they took risks in a new game.” – Forest Hills Team Manager Ben Grove
