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.

I had my best game against the Illinois Crusaders and got a lot of good blocks.

Would you share with the readers how you came to be a member of the Indianapolis Crimson Knights, including the high school you came from, if any?

I became a player for the Crimson Knights when I decided to go online and found a good Christian-based homeschool and private school team.

What is the best part of being a member of the Crimson Knights?

The best part of being a part of the Crimson Knights is the brotherhood I gain from the other players and the important lessons I learn.

What are your goals for the 2025 season?

My goals are to be dominant on the offensive side of the ball and try to get a lot of good run blocks as well as try to work towards being a good leader.

What goals will you set for your team?

My goals that I will set for my team are to be dominant and focused, and work well under pressure.

Would you share with the readers where you guys play your home games?

The Crimson Knights play a lot of our home games at Grand Park in Westfield, Indiana.

At what position on the offensive line do you feel you are better?

I feel better at the left guard position, but I will try my hardest to dominate wherever I am put.

What is the toughest aspect of being an offensive lineman?

The toughest aspect of being an offensive lineman is you are one of the most important positions on the field, and without you being your best, your team can suffer from that.

What is the most rewarding part of being a lineman?

The most rewarding part of being a lineman is getting a big block, and you are able to celebrate with your brothers on the field.

What is your biggest strength as a lineman?

My biggest strength as a lineman is I always try my best no matter who is in in front of me. I am undersized, so I must be 100% at my best to outperform my opponents.

What part of your game must you improve to be a better player?

I feel I need to improve on my strength and my quickness, but I am working towards being faster and stronger.

What makes you a good teammate?

I feel I am a good teammate because of my commitment and determination.

What scares you?

The thing that scares me is the worry that I will let down the people who rely on me.

What is your favorite animal?

My favorite animal is a frog.

What are you doing outside of sports to have fun?

I am working on cars and enjoying family 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 ...

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...
