In this episode of Storm Sessions, we kick off the baseball season by sitting down with Daniel Cuvet—the nation’s top-ranked third baseman. A Miami native, Daniel shares how growing up in the city’s ultra-competitive baseball scene shaped his game, from committing to the Hurricanes at just 14 years old to playing at Elite Squad Academy. He reflects on his breakout freshman season, the challenges of overcoming a mid-season slump, and the self-imposed pressure to deliver in clutch moments. Daniel also opens up about his family’s deep bond, his father’s career as a professional jai alai player, and how they rallied together when his mother was diagnosed with cancer. To close, we dive into fan-submitted questions for an even deeper look into his journey on and off the field.
