“I was raised at the (Fairbanks) curling club. I’m sure I was babysat at the curling club as an infant. I can’t remember a time without it. I don’t remember ever not curling.” (Athlete, 10 Dec 2021)
“I knew early on I was good at it. What’s kept me in it is the community, the cerebral heavy stuff, the people.” (Athlete, 10 Dec 2021)
“Legitimately, just to live a happy and fulfilled life, and live with integrity.” (Athlete, 10 Dec 2021)
“I’m very disciplined with training. I eat the same food for breakfast and lunch, every single day. I’m at the gym four days a week and I go throw every morning that I can, every day from nine to eleven. I’m very much a confidence through discipline kind of guy.” (Athlete, 10 Dec 2021)
Winning the Interior Regional Baseball Championship in 1995, which qualified his team for the state precursor to the Little League World Series. “It was a Cinderella story, we had no business winning, the other team was so much better than us. It felt like such a huge deal.” (Athlete, 10 Dec 2021)
At just eight or nine years old, Vicky Persinger (USA Mixed Doubles) gave a speech at Hufman’s junior team world championship send-off. “It was so genuine and super cool at the time, then I saw her win national championships over the years, and every time I’d think of that speech. I can still see it. Now we’re both going to the Olympics. It’s crazy how far we’ve come, from growing up at a curling club in Alaska.” (Athlete, 10 Dec 2021)
His parents.

“Confidence through preparation.” (Athlete, 10 Dec 2021)
