What are your goals for the season?

I want to be 1st team MVL and 1st team all-district.

Which part of your game do you feel is the strongest?

My ability to pressure the offense and my footwork on both sides.

What are your thoughts on being the Thursday TV game of the week?

It’s a great opportunity to showcase our talents as a team and to show the MVL what we are capable of.

DE/DT/OG, of the three positions you are listed as playing, which one do you feel you are best at?

DE, because of my combination of strength, speed, and growing football IQ, is going to allow me to be a dominant pass rusher in MVL.

What's the best part of being a lineman?

I love the contact and the physical aspect and opposing my will on other players.

What is the toughest part of being a lineman?

Not getting as much recognition as other positions and the wear and tear on your body, especially jammed fingers.

Who is the toughest teammate to square off against during practice?

 Mark Buckler, he is a very talented player.

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

Tommy Frye, Anderson

Do you feel that you and your teammates are role models to the younger kids who come and root for you?

Yes, because they look up to us, and as a team we do a youth camp and help out, and we try to model good behavior.

What has been your biggest moment as a football player?

My playoff game playing against Lima Senior.

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

Xenia or Tipp, they are tough opponents that we faced and lost to last season.

Would you rather play your rival in week one or week ten? Explain

Week 10 because we will both be our best as a team and players, and it would be a very good game.

Where is the best local spot to grab a pizza?

Old Scratch

What scares you?

All bugs

Which state would you like to visit for the first time?

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.
