Why do you play football?
I play football because of my love for the game and because of my love for sports. Football is my favorite sport and it gives me a place to create great bonds and get all of my competitiveness out

Who is your favorite sports star and why?
My all time favorite sports player is Tim Tebow. I have so much respect for how he shares his faith and could dominate on the field at the same time!

Do you have a favorite play you remember the most? Explain:
During my young years in junior high football my team was battling for the section title. It was the third game of the season but we were playing the best team in our section at the time. They were marching down the field to score the game winning touchdown and we couldn’t get a stop. They were on our side of the fifty when I sacked the quarterback and forced a fumble to end the game. It was so crazy because it was my first start that year and we ended up going undefeated the rest of the season!

What are your goals for this coming season?
My goals for this season are to get first team all state on both offensive and defensive line

What is your favorite Pro team, any sport?
The Steelers are my favorite sports team

What game, yours, college or pro, was your favorite game and why?
My favorite game that I can remember is playing our section rivals in my 7th grade year. It was for the section and the game was televised even though it was only a junior high game!

What sports movie would you watch every day if you had to pick one and why?
Probably the water boy. It is hilarious and overall a great movie in my opinion.

Name one thing that you’d love to do in football that may never happen?
Play in the NFL. That has been my dream and goal for as long as I can remember.

Who is your mentor, the person you want to be like? WHY?
I look up to my dad a lot. He is a very hard worker and has taught me everything I know!

What is your most embarrassing sports moment?
In a seventh grade basketball game I missed a somewhat open layup that would’ve won the game. The ball bounced at least 5 times on the rim but didn’t drop in.

Is there anyone in your family, besides your parents, you could consider your biggest fan? Who, Why?
My brother and sister are probably my biggest fans outside of my parents. They are at most of my games and always support me!

When you aren’t playing, practicing or training for sports, what is your go to activity and why?
I know this is technically training but when I have free time I like to lift or throw shot put. Both are very relaxing to me.

What is your favorite football memory to date?
Probably the already mentioned game winning sack in our section game.

What scares you the most?
Two things scare me more than anything. The first one is losing someone that is close to me. The second one is failing myself and the people around me.

Music of choice:
Worship music

What was your favorite gift as a little boy? Why?
This is a weird one, but for awhile growing up my family didn’t have cable on our TV. On one of my birthdays my dad got us cable so we could watch football/my Steelers that year and it meant so much to me!

What restaurant is your go to when you need a big meal?
Either Texas Road House or Shady Maple.

Which one? Sheetz or Wawa
Wawa

What is your favorite vacation destination?
My favorite vacation destination by far is the beach!
