When did you start playing football?
I have been playing football since I was 5 years old when my father started to teach me the game and i eventually fell in love with the sport. I have loved it ever since and is my passion.
What do you love most about the game?
The thing I love the most about the game of football would be the contact in the game. I love the physicality and getting out there and hitting people and tackling people.
What other hobbies do you have besides playing football?
My other hobbies are hunting and fishing. I love to go duck hunting and deer hunting. The fighting I like to do is fishing for either bass, red fish, or trout. Those are the things I like to do when I’m not playing football or at practice.
What type of leadership role do you have on your team?
I feel like I am a humble leader. Instead of a loud spoke vocal leader I am one who tries to just help show other teammates and players the right things and help anyone. I try to be motivation for the team and show my hard work and leadership on the field.
What do you see your future looking like?
First off I hopefully see myself playing college football somewhere to continue playing what I love. After I see myself with a good job so that one day, I have a family I can provide for and take care of.
What goal do you see for yourself and your team the rest of the season?
I can definitely see us making a deep run in the playoffs and going on to the state championship and winning in my senior season. I want to go out as a champion and get that championship ring.
Who is your biggest inspiration to play the game you love?
I would probably say that my biggest inspiration would be my dad because he is the one that taught me everything on how to play the game since I was little at the age of five. He is the reason I got into football and helped me get to be a championship type player.
What would it mean to win the state title in your senior year?
I would mean absolutely everything for me to win it my senior year. It would show all of the hard work and dedication I have put into the game every day and would be a great way to end of high school experience.
