Supporting comments: "James is a unique and truly special person who is as smart and diligent as he is relaxed and well-rounded. Balancing all of his commitments is no easy feat but he does so - and makes it look easy. His leadership qualities, drive and focus, and his outstanding communication skills have been evident for four years. Serving as team captain on the baseball team, James has been a fabulous model for his peers, especially so for the younger players. He has exceptional moral character, the ability to overcome adversity and a strong will to succeed. Few people naturally draw you in and make you feel as comfortable as James does. In most any group, he is a person to whom others gravitate."
