______________________
Words from the Coach:
“Cade is extremely athletic and I am not even sure what his ceiling is. He ran for over 1300 yards as a Junior and had not played at the position since back in middle school. Cade is our best open field tackler as well, he just makes plays wherever he is on the field. He is a stud coming in a 5’11, weighing 180lbs.”

Why do you play football ?
I love to compete and play the game I grew up watching.

Saquon Barkley, because he is on my favorite team the New York Giants. It’s also encouraging to see him succeed since he lived very close by.
Do you have a favorite play you remember the most ? Explain:
My favorite play was when my friend Jack Ingles caught a touchdown on the back of another player. It was crazy to see him make such a huge play and it also made ESPN top 10 plays.
What was last year’s season like for you ?
It was a very successful season for me and the team. I started off in two new positions and coming off a broken back the season before, it built my confidence and hope to have another good season.
Who is the best player you have ever lined up against ?
Not sure.
What stadium, (HS/College/Pro) would you love to visit for a game ?
Seahawks stadium, the atmosphere of the stadium seems extremely fun because of how loud the fans are.

New York Giants, it was my fathers and grandpa’s favorite team so I grew up watching them.
What game, yours, college or pro, was your favorite game you watched and why ?
The 2015 Giants vs Panthers game. It was extremely exciting since the Giants were heavy underdogs and the Panthers we undefeated at the time. It was also cool seeing OBJ vs Josh Norman in person.

Happy Gilmore, it is just very funny.
Name one thing you’d love to do in football that may never happen ?
Play in an NFL stadium.

South Carolina, I have family who live there.

NBA, NHL, MLB, NCAAF, NFL, Which league is the best and why ?
NFL, because of fantasy football and it’s more entertaining. Baseball is too slow and way too many games. NBA is ok but not super exciting to watch unless it’s playoffs. I don’t really watch the other two.
Location you think would be the best place to live(ie: island, mountains, city, etc) ? Explain why:
Near a lake somewhere, because it would be fun to wake up and just go swimming.
