you have from last season, whether it be a game, the bus ride to or from the game, or any other thing that sticks out.
Having a great football season with me and my guys I grew up with! The chemistry we all had was like playing in the backyard like we all used to do together!
What will you miss the most from the 2025 class?
They've been my brothers for the longest time! A lot of leaders and guys that I’ll always look up to till the end of time!
If the game is on the line, do you want to be on offense or defense? Explain
I’d say offense because if we are in need of a touchdown, I know that we have the guys to do so because that’s what we do over here!
Running back or outside linebacker, which one do you feel you are better at?
Running back, without a doubt! I’m not a bad OLB at all, but RB is just my thing! My vision, speed, strength, and acceleration are what make me stand out at RB!
What are your personal goals for the 2025 season?
1500+ rushing yards
20+ touchdowns

What is your favorite type of weather to play in?
A nice fall night! There’s just something about it! No better feeling than that!
Grass or turf?
It really doesn’t matter to me. You've got to come and show out no matter where you play!
What has been your biggest moment as a football player?
My biggest moment is every year I can tell that I grow as a young man and as a football player by getting better each and every day! But a moment that always replays in my head is when I scored the touchdown against Aliquippa to put us in a position to go for 2 and come out with a victory!
Who is the best player that you have faced in a game, along with the team he played for?
I’d say the best team I played against was Aliquippa my freshman year. They had a lot of dogs on the team at the time.
What was the highlight of the 2024 season?
When we were going into the playoffs, 9-1!
What was the lowest point of the 2024 season?
When we lost in the first round of playoffs due to some suspensions on the team.
If you are invited to play in any of the all-star games after the season, will you?
Yes, without a doubt! I always want to go and better myself by competing with people that are on the same mission as me!
Could you list some of the schools that are recruiting you?
RMU, Delaware, JMU, UAlbany, Lehigh, Georgetown, Towson, Slippery Rock, IUP,
What scares you?
Nothing really scares me, if I had to say.
Who are your role models?
My parents! Everything that they went through to provide for me and my brother means the world to me! They push me to be the best I can be every single day! God has truly blessed me to have parents as caring and loving as they are!
What is your favorite video game and system?
PlayStation 5: I like to play a lot of college football with me and my buddies!
