Coach Bret Stover: “One of the most athletic and disciplined athletes to ever roam the secondary here at UD. Chris’ attention to detail and ball hawking abilities stem all the way back to his freshman season were he led the team in interceptions and returned one for a TD in the closing moments of the District 1 Championship game vs West Chester Rustin in 2020. Had a scoop and score fumble recovery vs PW in the District Semi-FInals in 2022”.
