Why do you play football? 

I fell in love with it at an early age. I love the thrill of the game as well. 

What has been your best memory from football so far? 

The District Six Championship game this past season.

Who is your favorite pro athlete and why?

Troy Polamalu, he has no fear and goes after everyone. He proves everyone wrong and he is just an amazing hybrid player. 

Who is your biggest fan and why? 

My mom, she loves to watch me play and she always cheers me on the most from the stands. 

Is there any specific person you look up to and use as a role model?  

My dad, he has never given up and that’s what I wanna do. 

What is your desired major in college?  

Medical or Science field. 

Coming off a year with COVID struggles, what do you think this year will be like?

I’m hoping we get a full camp season. I want it to be normal and it’s looking good now. 

Favorite play to run?

Inside zone. It can open up anything, it’s just a fun play to run. 

What is your personal goal for this season?

First-team All-State, 100 tackles, and at least double-digit touchdowns.

Favorite pre-game meal?

Chicken and rice.

Sports movie?

Remember the Titans. 

Sport you’d love to play but can’t?

Lacrosse.

Most embarrassing sports moment?

In fifth grade, we ran through the banners and we all slipt and fell. 

What are you looking forward to most this year?

Starting on Varsity. I got some playing time after one of my teammates got hurt so I’m hoping to start the whole way through. 

Favorite activities?

Weight lifting, video games, and bowling.
