Coach Says: Trent is a tenacious and very coachable football player. He has worked very hard to become one of the best safeties in our area. He led the area last year in interceptions with 7. He was also our best receiver with 24 catches for 404 yards. He increased his speed in track this year. He had a 10.9 100 meter dash. I am really looking forward to what he does in his senior season.
