_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Why do you play football?
Because when I was younger, I fell in love with the sport & I had a dream about me making it out of Pittsburgh with football. I can’t let that little guy down I got a lot of people to prove wrong & there’s only 1 way to do that.

Who is your favorite sports star and why?
Cam Newton, because his work ethic he just keeps going.

Do you have a favorite play you remember the most? Explain:
Probably in the semifinals last year vs North Catholic, we just came off our first playoff win and I was at safety for the first time this game, the QB rolled out to my side trying to do speed option & he thought that pump fake was fooling me and I hit him so hard I broke my chinstrap, he was down hurting my whole team was turnt after that and & we fed off each other’s energy and came out with the win.

What are your goals for this coming season?
Conference Champs, WPIAL Champs, State Champs.

Carolina Panthers

What game, yours, college or pro, was your favorite game and why?
I would say vs South Allegheny, we went in that game supposed to beat them by 40 but it was 14-0 1st quarter and our starting QB/S tore his ACL, everything that could’ve went wrong for us did, and we still pulled it out in double OT on the 1 yard line when I made the tackle 4th & goal.

I would say my dad, he was an amazing man and just seemed to have the answers to all my questions.

Is there anyone in your family, besides your parents, you could consider your biggest fan? Who, Why?
probably my cousin Allen, he’s at basically every game telling me what I did good, what I need to work on, and he’ll workout with me to work on things I need to. He’s just very supportive and is there with whatever I need.
