How long have you played football, along with the reasons you continue to play?

I have played football my whole life, and I will continue to play because of my love and passion for the sport.

If you play other sports at Raceland High School, would you list them?

I run track.

What is the best part of being a student-athlete at Raceland?

Being able to get a good education and take college classes now in high school to advance myself for the future and have a head start on my college classes

What is the toughest part of being a student-athlete?

Having a busy week of school when it’s the week of an important game.

Would you share with the readers the camps you have been to, along with some of the things that you have learned?

I have been to WVU, Toledo, Kent State, Ohio, KCU, Cincinnati, and Kentucky. I will be attending Ball State, Marshall, and Yale in the next few weeks. I have learned many things about on-the-field work, but the main things that have stuck are how to be a leader for my team and the work ethic it takes to take it to the next level.

Who is the best player that you have faced in a game, along with the team he played for?

There are many great players I’ve played against—too many to name. Some of the best teams I’ve played for have been LCA, Highlands, and Johnson Central.

What is the biggest lesson you have learned from playing sports?

The more you put in, the more you get out.

Wide receiver or strong safety—which one do you feel you are best at?

I think wide receiver—that’s what position I’m looking to play in college.

Wide receiver or strong safety—which one do you feel is the toughest to prepare for?

Strong Safety: As a wide receiver, there’s less to learn each game. When playing strong safety, you have to learn the other team's full playbook and have a bigger role.

Of all the road games that you have played in, which stadium had the best overall atmosphere?

The best overall atmosphere I’ve played in was at Kroger Field for the state championship in the 2023 season. No other game I’ve played has matched the nerves and environment of that game.

What has been your biggest moment as an athlete, in any sport, at any age?

Making it to the state championship as a freshman and sophomore. As well as being given the ability to make it to the state finals in all four years of high school, which has never been done at Raceland.

What would you say to that young seventh grader who wants to play football?

Get a good trainer, lift, and build as many relationships with coaches as you can.

Outside of sports, what do you do for fun?

I enjoy lifting, fishing, and hanging out with my friends.

What is your favorite meal?

Chicken, rice, and eggs.

X-Box or PlayStation?

PlayStation

2024 With Head Coach Jake Heigel from Brockway High School, PA.

  Jake Heigel Brockway High  Head Football Coach Who was the best player you have ever coached against, and what team did he play for? Carson Neely, Port Allegany  Looking back from day one as a coach up to the present, what have been the low and high points of your coaching career? 2020 was a rough first year. We had maybe 15 kids on the roster in preseason sometime in late June. We ended up with probably 6 starters who had never played football in their lives, which isn’t exactly a recipe for success! I was also ejected from our game against Cowanesque Valley. We lost to DuBois 49-0 to end the difficult season... The future did not look so bright. - But fast forward to 2022, where we won our first playoff game 62-6. Followed that up with a win against the reigning western finals champion, Redbank Valley, in a 7-3 fist fight to advance to the D9 championship. In 2023, we won an overtime thriller against DuBois Area 14–13, avenging a 1-point loss at the 1-yard line the year prior.

  Braylon Sturgill Ironton High School LB/FB 2025 What were your goals entering the 2023 season, and were you able to achieve those goals? Our goal every year is simple: win a state championship. We fell short last season, but we are coming back stronger. My personal goals were to be a full-time starter and contribute to my team's success. I was able to start and contribute despite a few injuries that prevented me from being 100% throughout the season. What is it like to play for Coach Pendleton? It’s an honor playing for Coach Pendleton; he knows what it takes to be successful and play at the next level. A coach demands excellence and accepts nothing less. What makes Coach different from other coaches is that he teaches us toughness, and that’s what separates Ironton from other teams. Coach has surrounded us with some of the best staff in Ohio. He is the best coach I have ever played for. What is the hardest part of an Ironton practice? The hardest part about practice is
