Why do you play football?
I play football because I love everything about it. I love that not everyone has what it takes to play, it takes a special individual to strap on the pads and go to war every day with their teammates.

Who is your favorite sports star and why?
Carson Wentz, because he is a great player on the field and a great man of faith off the field.

Do you have a favorite play you remember the most? Explain:
My favorite play I can remember was from our game vs Mifflinburg last year. It was 4th and goal at the one-yard line in Overtime. We had scored when we had the ball, so if we stopped them we won the game. They ran an outside run to my side and I was able to make the tackle to end the game. After that, the rest of the team stormed the field and celebrated the win.

What game, yours, college or pro, was your favorite game, and why?
My favorite game of all time is Superbowl 52 when the Eagles defeated the Patriots. It’s my favorite because my favorite team finally won a Superbowl, and they were doubted so much by everyone and still pulled off the upset.

What is your favorite Pro team, any sport?
Philadelphia Eagles

What sports movie would you watch every day if you had to pick one and why?
Remember the titans. I would choose that movie because its a really inspirational and there are some really funny moments.

What cartoon character do you think your head coach most resembles?
Coach Renninger most resembles Popeye!

If your mom and dad are screaming at you from the stands, what is it they usually yell?
My dad yells “Let’s go Micah!” and my mom just yells without saying anything.

Who is your mentor, the person you want to be like?
My Dad, because he is a great example of what it means to be a husband and father.

Name a sport you’d love to play but can’t:
Brazilian jiu-jitsu

What is your most embarrassing sports moment?
In my first year after transitioning from linemen to a runningback (9th grade), I convinced a coach to run a play for me to get the ball in practice. I ended up fumbling my only carry, luckily i ended up getting a lot better in the area of my game. At the time though it was very embarrassing.

When you aren’t playing, practicing or training for sports, what is your go to activity and why?
My go-to activity is cooking and then eating, this is because to get big you have to eat big.

What is your favorite football memory to date?
My favorite football memory was also my favorite play. When we won in overtime vs Mifflinburg. It felt really awesome to get a win for the seniors on senior night, and it was an amazing feeling when we stopped them on 4th down and our team stormed the field to celebrate the win.

What is your favorite play to run?
21 Trap

Music of choice:
