Q&A

What made you choose football?

I started playing at a very young age, and I knew the sport was for me the first time I ever touched the field.

What’s your favorite football memory?

My favorite football memory is beating Clairton this past season for a trip to Hershey because we were heavily doubted after starting the season 0-2.

What activities do you enjoy outside of playing football?

When I’m not playing football, I enjoy working out, playing video games, and spending time with my friends and family.

What non-football accomplishment are you most proud of?

I am proud that I can maintain a 4.0 GPA while keeping up with sports.

 Who is your favorite athlete, and why?

My favorite athlete is Kobe Bryant because of his leadership and winning mentality.

What has been the most difficult part of training during the pandemic, and how did you overcome it?

It was very weird not to be able to get work in with my teammates, but I’ve overcome that by working out by myself every day until I am allowed to train with them again.

Do you prefer offense or defense?

I have huge roles on both sides of the ball as a wide receiver and a defensive back, so it would be hard for me to choose one. I just like being on the field.

Who is your biggest role model?

My biggest role model is my dad.

What are your parents most likely to yell from the stands?

I can never hear what they say from the field I just hear a lot of screaming and know it’s them.

What are your team and personal goals for the season?

The team goal is to win our 3rd State Championship in a row. My personal goal is just to be the best that I can be and improve from last season.

If you could have dinner with three people, living or dead, who would you choose?

I would have dinner with Kobe Bryant, Troy Polamalu, and my late grandmother. 

What hobby do you have that might surprise people?

I love to fish

What’s your favorite sport, other than football, to play or watch?

Other than football, I really enjoy playing and watching basketball.

What is one thing you hope other players can learn from you?

To keep your teammates head up.

What is your expectation of Farrell football this season?

We lost a good number of people in the 2020 class who graduated, but I feel that we still have a lot of talent, and I believe we will come back even stronger than last year.

My favorite TV show is Spongebob.

What is your favorite movie?
