Why do you play football?
I play football because I love the feeling on a Friday night under the lights in a stadium filled with fans. It gets so electric at times that I can’t hear myself think. It’s the best when you make a great play and the crowd goes wild and your teammates are hyping you up.

Who is your favorite sports star and why?
T.J. Watt is my favorite sports star because I love watching him play. He’s an animal on the field and has crazy good pass rush moves that I try to learn for myself every time I watch him.

Do you have a favorite play you remember the most? Explain:
My favorite play is probably from this past year’s postseason when we were playing Notre Dame Green Pond. We were up by 8 and it was 3rd and goal for them with a minute left on the clock. During a timeout I suggested to coach that we should run a DL stunt cause I think they’re gonna run the ball. So when we get to line up I went to play DE and my teammate who originally plays DE line up at DT. When the ball snapped I crashed inside and he went around me to make the tackle for loss and I was so hyped. The next play they threw an incompleted pass and we won the game that no one thought we were going too.

What are your goals for this coming season?
My goals for this upcoming season are definitely trying to get back in the District Championship and change the outcome this time. Our school has never won it before so it would be awesome to be on the team to do it first.

What stadium, HS/college/pro would you love to visit for a game?
I would love to visit Death Valley one time. I don’t really cheer for Clemson but I would love to experience the atmosphere that they have their.

What is your favorite Pro team, any sport?
My favorite Pro team has to be the Steelers. I grew up watching them and I love watching their highlights of the Super Bowls they won in the 2000’s, it gives me the chills when I watch Santonio Holmes make thag tip toe catch against the cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII.

Name one thing that you’d love to do in football that may never happen?
Get a touchdown. It’s very unlikely for linemen to get a touchdown but there’s always that chance for DL.

Name a sport you’d love to play but can’t:
I would love to play Lacrosse because it looks so fun and you get to hit people like it’s hockey too.

Is there anyone in your family, besides your parents, you could consider your biggest fan? Who, Why?
Definitely my siblings, I was there biggest fan growing up and I watch them play their high school sports before me and I wanted to be just like them. So when they cheer for me it gets me excited and makes me want to play even better to make them proud.

When you aren’t playing, practicing or training for sports, what is your go to activity and why?
I love to fish. It doesn’t matter where, if I’m fishing I’m having a great time no matter what cause it’s so relaxing.

What is your favorite football memory to date?
I already mentioned it before but definitely when Santonio Holmes made the tip for catch against the Cardinals in the Super Bowl to win it. It’s just an unbelievable play that he makes and it gets me excited to play football every time when I hear the crowd go wild for his catch.

What is your favorite play to run?
Definitely the running play Power. It’s so simple because every linemen on the line has to do is drive the guy across from them as far as they can down field.

What is your favorite vacation destination?
Ocean City, Maryland is my favorite vacation destination because I love being in the ocean and going to the boardwalk and fishing off the shore at night.
