Chris Archer came to the Academy yesterday, and talked about his life growing up and how he got to be where he is today. What got me the most is when he was telling us about his life growing up. When Chris said that he was adopted by his grandparent's and how they were white and he was mixed. He remembered the weird look's that he got when they'd go out to public place's. Knowing that he was adopted and wondered why he still kept going and didn't let anything stop him from play baseball.
