Winning the Game of Life-High School Quarterback Makes a Difference on and off the Field

Following the death of a former girlfriend, Serra High School quarterback Luke Bottari vowed to make a difference. As a 15-year-old, he started a non-profit to raise awareness of teen suicide and remove the stigma surrounding mental health. Since starting Play 4 Prevention, Bottari has educated himself and others on the issues facing today’s youth. His message supersedes a decorated playing career that includes the Padres’ first state championship. On his way to spreading the word and proving doubters wrong on the field, Bottari stopped by to get us caught up on life, the Serra experience and hoping to save a life with our conversation.
