Q&A with Brooklyn Center DB Dayvia Gbor

<p><span style="font-size:14px"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">"I feel like my best traits as a player are being a leader on the team," Brooklyn Center defensive back <strong>Dayvia Gbor</strong> said to Northstar Football. "Also coming up to make plays from my safety position and playing man to man defense . My strengths from the offensive side of the ball are my ability to play multiple positions and as a quarterback, being able to recognize defenses and being able to make plays with my legs and arms. Last year, our season wasn&#39;t the best as we went 4-6. Although, we did win our first home section game in seven years, which was pretty exciting and our secondary as whole, had 13 interceptions."</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size:14px"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">It&#39;s been an off-season full of workouts for Gbor. </span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size:14px"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">"This offseason I&#39;ve been mainly doing the team workouts and also some individual field workouts with Paul Jones from Velocity," Gbor explained to Northstar Football. "For my primary position as a corner, I&#39;ve been trying to improve my ability of playing on man coverage without using my hands to jam, I&#39;m really try to improve my footwork and getting in and out of breaks. Also making sure to improve my flexibility as I feel like all these things will help me take my game to the next level and help prepare for college football. With offense, I&#39;ve been working on my ability to go through my progressions better and not taking off to scramble after my first two reads aren&#39;t there. I feel like that will help us as a team put up more points because when I watch film from last year it&#39;ll be times I took off to run and I would have a receiver open down field. My goals for next season as a team are to win a section championship and we all set that goal during spring camp and we feel like we on the right path to get that done. It&#39;s going take some time to get adjusted to our new coaching staff I feel like that&#39;s something we can make it happen and once that happens we want to make some noise in the state tournament."</span></span></p>
