It’s been great. I’ve been focused on earning trust and building chemistry with the team. When you met your new teammates, what was the first thing that you said to them? I told them I’m excited to be a part of something special, work hard, and help the team win. What do you believe the strongest part of your game is? I think my ability to stay balanced, whether that’s making the right throw or using my legs when I need to help the offense stay moving. How would you describe your style of play?

  Jarred Johnson Huntington High School Guard, Defensive Line, MLB 2027 5'9, 230 lbs. Jersey Number: 59 Other sports played: powerlifting Please post a small recap of last season with something like a big game you had, something about a certain game, something from a bus ride to or from the game, or something that sticks out from a practice. A big game last year for me was the game against Eastern Pike; even though the score didn’t show it, I feel like I had a good game on both sides of the ball. Eastern is always a good game. When we last spoke, you had said that 2024 would be the first year playing on the defensive line. So, how did that go? Last year was my first year playing defensive line; it went great. I loved being the one who did the dirty work for our inside linebackers! Last time we spoke, you said one of your goals was to become a leader. Were you able to achieve this goal? Yes, now that I’m considered an “upperclassman,” I feel that it’s my job to lead the upcoming pla...
