What were your feelings as you got off the field for the last time as a high school fotball player?

I was emotional, but ready for the next chapter.

If you are invited to play in any of the statewide all-star games, will you? Explain

Yes, because it’ll give me one more opportunity to play the sport that I love at a high school level.

What will you remember the most from your high school football career game or anything football-related?

The game that I rushed for 210 yards against Coffman

Gahanna has played some strong non-league opponents; of those opponents, which team was the best? What made them so good?

Mason, because they were probably the most physical team we have played.

Who was the best player that you competed against in a game, along with the team he played for?

Keishaun Calhoun from Groveport

What did you learn about yourself this season that you will use at the next level to be a better player?

I learned how to face adversity and to have patience.

What will you miss the most about being a member of the Gahanna football team?

I'll miss the coaching staff; they were like family.

How is the recruiting process going?

The recruiting process is going well right now; I recently earned an offer from Ohio Northern University.

Would you share with everyone one or two of the schools that you are hearing from?

I have a couple of visits at Bluffton and also Muskingum universities in the next few weeks!

What mark do you believe your class left on the football program?

I believe we left a huge mark. We faced doubters and adversity all season, but that motivated us!

What is your favorite class or subject?

English is my favorite subject right now!

Who are your favorite and least favorite pro football teams?

My favorite is the Detroit Lions, and my least favorite is the Indianapolis Colts.

What is your go-to snack?

My favorite go-to snack is a big bag of Grippos.

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.

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
