Home Grown highlights hometown athletes who embody the spirit of their community wherever they go. Each episode revisits former high school stars now competing at the college level — athletes who grew up on local fields, courts, and tracks and continue to represent the places that shaped them.
Through candid, unfiltered conversations, they share their journeys of grit, growth, and gratitude. Home Grown isn’t just about sports — it’s about pride, roots, and the people who make our community what it is. No matter how far they go, these athletes remain true to their roots.
