Let’s get to know Hunter!
Why do you play football?
I am good at it and love to play. Also just keeps me busy
Who is your favorite sports star and WHY?
Davonta Smith because he’s on the eagles and also wears #6 and I just love his game
Do you have a favorite play you remember the most? Explain:
Scoring the game winning touchdown against CB west
What was last years season like for you?
It was a pretty good season but I am not satisfied at all. I feel like I need to create more explosive plays and just turn short passes into huge gains and touchdowns. I want to show that I really have that yac ability and can make defenders miss with the ball in my hands.
What are your goals for this coming season?
I want to get 1000 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns, 1st team all league again, and win the league championship .
Who is the best player you ever lined up against?
This is a hard question because I don’t really remember someone specific who was the best I have ever lined up against, but someone this season who gave us a hard time was Aiden Burgy on quakertown.
What game, yours, college or pro, was your favorite game you watched and why?
Eagles Vs chiefs Super Bowl this past season when the eagles won because I just love the eagles and they’ve always been my favorite team especially the team they had this year and it was just fun to watch them blow them out and see everyone in the area celebrating the win and yea the vibe was just great for the whole week after .
Describe what the perfect teammate is
Someone who just wants to see his teammates succeed and is always trying to make himself and everyone around him better. Has a positive attitude always and wants to win
Tell everyone why you think football is good for a community
I think football is good for the community because it can just bring everyone together to watch and cheer on the local team. Families can meet and become closer and its just something to look forward too on a Friday night .
Name one thing that you’d love to do in football that may never happen?
I would really like to go d1 but I understand how challenging it is.
Who is your mentor, the person you want to be like? WHY?
I really do look up to my dad and the way he carries himself and treats other people as well as my mom . A mentor for me though my sophomore year was Danny Dyches, I wanted to be like him and he really just helped me learn everything I needed to know before I took that next step to where I am today . Always believed in me and told me I’d be doing the things I am now .
What is your favorite practice drill? What is your least favorite practice drill?
We do a drill where we have a receiver and then a db trailing one step behind them and when the QB says go we run a go and he throws a jump ball. That’s definitely my favorite and for my least favorite honestly I’m not really sure, probably the drills during two a days that are made to condition us.
Preseason Two a Days are:
Not very fun especially if it’s super hot out but I always feel accomplished at the end of them.
Is there anyone in your family, besides your parents, you could consider your biggest fan? Who, Why?
My Pap and my Mommom. They make sure to either be at or watch every single game and they are always talking and bragging about me. They keep up with all my stats and are always asking about it .
When you aren’t playing, practicing or training for sports, what is your go to activity and why?
Probably just spending time and chilling with family and friends. I also really just like to go play basketball and go to the gym on my own time.
What is your favorite play to run?
I really just like any play where I have the possibility to get the ball but I’d say my favorite play which I don’t really do is a goal line fade. Just wanna go up 1on1 with the defender because I know I’m coming down with the ball.
Music of choice:
Rap and rnb
Best Pizza topping?
Pepperoni
What is your favorite vacation destination?
I went on a cruise to the Bahamas and I loved it
