<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>What were you looking to get out of the day?</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>Locoh:</strong> I was looking to show out for everybody – any player, any coach, any scout, any writer – that was there. I feel like my abilities will show up to somebody. I had fun doing it.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Why do you think the coaches picked you as one of the MVPs?</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>Locoh:</strong> I think it was my quickness, my agility and how fast I can get to the quarterback. I think my skill with my hands helped, too. See ball, get ball.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>What is the biggest thing you took away from the coaching aspect of the Showcase?</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>Locoh:</strong> Having a low pad level for sure. Also, keeping my feet grounded and working with my hands, but mostly working on a low pad level.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>What have you been working on this offseason?</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>Locoh:</strong> I have been working on staying low and working a lot with my rip technique and my club technique.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>What else have you been working on this offseason?</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>Locoh:</strong> I have been doing a lot of speed and strength development. I play intermural basketball in the winter and will be running sprints in track this spring.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>What are your strengths as a defensive lineman?</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>Locoh:</strong> Right now, my strengths are my speed and my tenacity.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Where did you typically line up on the defensive line?</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>Locoh:</strong> I was usually a five tech or an outside linebacker. I played a little tight end on offense.</p>
