What are you going to miss the most from playing high school football?

What I’m going to miss most is childhood rivalries & Friday nights.
 
What was the biggest lesson that you have learned from playing high school sports?

Don’t take anything for granted.

What were your feelings as you walked off the field for the last time as a member of the East Tigers football team?

It felt good but unreal that that’s the last time at war with them boys.

What game will you remember the most from your career? Explain

Toledo Scott vs. East High 2022 Trey Lindsey had a clutch last-second 60-yard QB run touchdown for the win, or when we went into 3x OT against Cambridge due to a clutch field goal block by Solo Vaughn.

Which loss hurt the most during your career?

When we played Linden this year, we were in a position to outright win the city title, and they outplayed us and got the win and got a piece of the title when I feel no team in the north was working as hard as us to reach that standard.

What mark do you feel your class left on the East Tigers football program?

Consistency: since we were sophomores, we have been at the top of the city north and had a chance to compete in the OHSAA State playoffs, and I feel that they could grow on that.

Looking back, what do you wish you would have done differently as far as preparing yourself as a football player?

Keep a more open mind.

Who was the best player you ever faced in a game, along with the team he played on?

I couldn't really tell; there weren't a lot of athletes that went crazy on us. We always matched up pretty well.

What part of your game must you improve on before moving to college?

Imma sharpen up all around before heading off.

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

Of course 

What has been the best and worst part of the recruiting process?

The best part is learning about different programs, and the worst part is just emailing and texting hundreds of coaches all over the country.

Could you name some of the schools that are recruiting you?

Capital 
OWU
McPherson 
Hocking 
JMCC
Bluffton
Kenyon 
Central state

When will you make your college announcement?

Soon

What is your favorite home-cooked meal?

Meatloaf only the way my dad makes it, though 

Who are your role models?

I don’t really look up to people I don’t want to be in life.

What scares you?

God

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 t...

  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 ...

How long have you been the long snapper, and how did you get into playing that position? I have been playing long snapper for 2 years, and I started playing it because my big brother Cynceir McNeal played it when he came here, and he inspired me to start playing long snapper. You are also a linebacker and a tight end. Of those two positions, which one do you feel y...
