Highlights from 2024: http://www.hudl.com/v/2QYukW

What was the most disappointing part of the 2024 season?

Our losing record and having to come back from my injury

What has been your biggest moment as a football player?

Starting varsity football as a freshman transfer

Who has been the best player that you have faced in a game, along with the team he was on?

Hard decision, but there was a running back from Logan School last year; never got his name or anything, but he was one good player for real.

What makes you a good teammate?

I always have confidence and always want to put the work in and get better and push everyone.

How important is it to you for the team not only to get along on the field but off of it too?

A lot, when we get more time working together, putting extra work in, and just hanging out as friends instead of teammates, helps move us closer as a team and better for us to work together by meeting each other more and finding better ways to work around the hard things.

Can the band and fans really get you fired up?

Yes, for sure, every time I hear the fans hyped and the band start playing, that’s when I get hyped up and ready to go play and boost my confidence.

What are you going to miss the most from the 2025 class?

People, for sure. David, Tone, and more—they were some good teammates and good people to hang around all the time, and I looked up to them most of the time for real.

What game are you looking forward to the most this season?

Licking Heights

How are you guys as a team fitting into the Licking County League?

As a team, we can be good when everyone works together and gets on the same track, but we have new kids coming into our football team, and we just have to work on being together and more communication.

Wide receiver or defensive back, which one do you feel you are better at?

Wide receiver

If the game is on the line, do you want to be on offense or defense? Explain

Offense, because we got good running backs and wide receivers too. If we block for them or do the right thing and make the right play, I feel like we could get it all together and win the game.

What is your favorite energy drink?

White Peach Red Bull

What scares you?

Getting injured from the same thing again

What is your favorite sport to watch?

Football always.

My respect for other teammates, my hard work and dedication, and lifting my teammates up during hard times. What was the highlight of the 2024 season? The highlight of my 2024 season was definitely the 42-yard free kick Coach Daniel Barker had me working on all week before we played that Friday night. For those that don’t know, a free kick happens after receiving a fair catch. Your team can choose to kick a field goal off a kickoff tee from where the fair catch was received. It’s very rarely used in football now. But I did do it. I made a 42-yard free kick, and it made my season! What was the toughest part of the 2024 season? The hardest part of the 2024 season was probably finding out that my best friend ...

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...
