Name: Jake Hyer
Alias: Baby Bear
Age: 16
School: Whitesboro
Sports: Lacrosse/Hockey
Jake has been training with O.B. Training and Sports Performance for just about a year now. When he started with us back at The Fitness Mill he was just a little boy, but has grown over this past year into quite the athlete. He has even developed his own form of shuffling, “The Baby Bear Shuffle”. We are very excited to see what the future holds for Jake as he can hold his own against some of our top high school/college athletes and he is only 16. Jake was able to take some time away from perfecting his shuffling technique to answer some questions for us.
