As someone who got to watch Robbie play in the district 1 6A championship game, I can say that he is a phenomenal athlete playing both ways.  After coming up short in the championship game last year, Robbie has only one thing on his mind for this upcoming season, “to help my team to a district championship.

His head coach, Rob Heist said, “Robbie is our Tight End and Outside Linebacker. He was 1st Team All-Liberty on both sides of the ball in 2022. Robbie is 6’2″ 195lbs. He is a 6′ high jumper in track. Robbie has a 4.8 weighted GPA and is an excellent student.”
