He was attending WSU Tech and was finishing his final class at the time of his passing.
Ethan loved sports and participated in soccer, wrestling, basketball, football, trapshooting, and Tae Kwon Do, but his passion was baseball. Ethan first played t-ball with his brother, Logan, at the age of 3. He played for the Ark City Rec League, Ponca City Jr. Baseball, and Drillers Babe Ruth team out of Howard, KS. This team became his family. His teammates were his brothers. He played High School varsity baseball in Dexter and Valley Center. He was dedicated to the sport and was a valuable player and talented pitcher. The Royals were his first favorite team and was ecstatic when they won the World Series in 2015. The Dodgers ultimately became his favorite team based on their excellent pitching staff and he even named their son Liam Hendriks in honor of their closing pitcher.
Ethan was a great friend. He was a party to be around and made his friends his family. Caleb, Mason, Joseph, Spencer, Keagan, Si, Jordan, Jesse, Colby, Rocky, Jared, Sean, Eric, and Tarik were among his brothers.
