What are your hobbies off of the football field?

What made you get into being a long snapper?
“My freshman year I was put on the freshman A team as a tight end. When the time came, they tried to find someone who could snap. I stepped up and was just okay at it. Three games into my freshman year the snapper on varsity broke his thumb. Varisity coaches thought I was good enough to play varsity, so I got called up and took it serious ever since.”
Is Kohl’s Snapping Camp the only camp you’ve been to? If not, what are they?

What have you worked on over the offseason to improve your game?
“This offseason I really worked to just get stronger and put on weight. The reason I worked on these two things are because when I put on more muscle and become stronger, my snaps will get quicker and smoother. I wanted to put on more weight too because I was getting thrown around at the size I was at and now, since the offseason, I haven’t been thrown around and can stand my ground.”
What is your personal goal for the season?
“My personal goal for this season would probably be to get a tackle on a punt because that’s something I have still yet to do on varsity.”

Who is your role model off the field?
“My role model off the field is my Dad because he has taught me so much about the sport of football.”
What do you think you still need to improve on throughout the remainder of this season?
“Through the remainder of the season, I’ll need to work on consistency through my snaps. Sometimes when the shield protectors are taking a while to call cadence, I get in my head then snap goes a little high. Therefore, I need to work on just doing what I do best and keeping a level head.”

As a junior, how have you tried to increase your role as a leader on your team?
