Coach Mo Says “Anthony is a special talent. His athleticism and burst separate him from a lot of his peers. He is a two sport athlete (started both baseball and football as a sophomore) who contributes in all aspects for both teams. For us he will be a kid who needs to the have the ball in his hands because he is a difference maker. He might not be the most vocal leader but his work ethic is seen by all when he is on the field which in turns pushes his teammates to be better. Anthony was a first team all conference selection as a RB last season”.
