BattleWolf Crossfit Athlete Spotlight -- Tony Castillo
Coaches Prospective --- Its hard to believe that this kid is only 16 years old. He comes in everyday with a big smile and a positive attitude that is contagious. It's not often you see role models that are half the age of their peers, but I can say personally that I'm motivated and driven by the work ethic that this kid has when it comes to his training. I'm sure parents, Carlos and Angela, are extremely proud of this respectful young man. We are excited to continue watching Tony grow as a young man and an athlete.
