In watching some of your hudl highlights from your junior season the first thing that sticks out is your ability to pull and make the block. Very impressive. How much do you work on techniques for being able to do this so naturally?

Pulling has been something that we’ve been taught since Jr High. It’s most definitely my favorite thing to do on the field. To work and perfect it you do the same thing like any other work out. Practice.

Do you enjoy offensive or defensive line the most?

As much as I love making tackles, I’d have to say offense is my favorite position.

Which is harder for you to play. Offensive or defensive line?

Physically defense is harder to play but from a mental standpoint I would have to say offense is harder.

You guys have been on a row as of late. Not since the 2012-213 have the Redbank Valley Bulldogs finished under .500. What will it take to keep the winning ways going this coming season?

It’s all about the attitude. From what we have on our team this year that attitude is looking good.

I know and understand that you want to win every game, that is the reason to play the game. But which team on the 2021 schedule do you want to be more than the others?

There’s a couple of games that stand out as big games but we can’t look at it that way cause we just have to take it one game at a time and every opponent will get treated the same.

Which stadium other than your own do you think is the best you have played in as far as high school stadiums go?

Probably my favorite stadium other than our own to play on would have to be Brockway’s. Overall a nice facility and it helps that we were able to win a district championship there.

What is the most enjoyable part of playing football?

My two favorite things about football are the big hits and winning.

What goals have you set for yourself as well as team goals?

My personal goals are to stay healthy and play the sport as good as possible to help our team. Our team goals would have to be to win another district championship and see what happens after that.

What is your favorite type of music?

I like the music that will get you going so something like Mötley Crüe usually does the job to get me in that mindset.

Who is your biggest fan?

I’d have to say my parents, there usually the two people I always look out to see at my games.
