_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________What is the best part about playing football?
The best part about playing football is the competition because, there’s nothing better then being the underdog in a big game, the adrenaline rush you get walking on that field on a Friday night is like no other.

What has been your best memory from football so far?
I’ve had a lot of memories throughout my years but there was nothing better then winning the semi finals of the WPIAL Championship against North Catholic.

Is there any specific person you look up to and use as a role model?
My mom and dad are my two biggest role models simply because they both worked extremely hard to get where they are at today, they taught me at a young age that you have to work hard for what you want in life, and you can’t take short cuts.

Which side of the ball would you consider your better strength, Offense or Defense?
I don’t have a preference on where I play on the football field, I believe I bring the same amount of help on both sides of the ball.

What opposing team on your 2021 schedule are you looking forward to playing against?
We have a few tough teams on our schedule but the one team I want to play is Central Valley.

Coming off a year with COVID struggles, what do you think this year will be like?
I’m extremely excited for this upcoming season because my strength and speed are at an all time high.

College Offers… If so, by what schools?
I recently picked up an offer from Duquesne.
