About Bryce

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I play with a physical, relentless style that’s built on strength, leverage, and quickness off the ball. At 6’2” and 240 pounds, I use my power in the trenches to control gaps, disrupt plays, and put constant pressure on the offense. I take pride in being coachable and disciplined, studying the game so I can react quickly and do my job every snap.

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

I have a hardworking, competitive mentality and always try to outwork the person in front of me. I stay disciplined and focused, but I also bring energy and positivity to my team. I’m coachable, eager to learn, and believe in leading by example on and off the field. My goal is to be dependable—someone my coaches and teammates can always count on.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

Outside of sports, I’ve spent the past six years helping with BaxtoberFest, a community fundraiser my family hosts each fall. I’ve been involved since I was a kid—setting up tents and tables, carrying supplies, running games, and helping with the silent auction. Each year, BaxtoberFest raises thousands of dollars and collects donations for local families and organizations in need.

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

Through football I’ve developed leadership, discipline, and teamwork—learning how to communicate on the field, push through challenges, and hold myself accountable. Off the field, helping with BaxtoberFest for the past six years has taught me responsibility, service, and the importance of giving back to others. Together, these experiences have shaped me into someone who works hard.

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

One of my biggest challenges has been competing at the varsity level at a young age—starting varsity baseball as a freshman and varsity football as a sophomore. Going up against older, stronger, and more experienced players pushed me to raise my game quickly. I had to grow not only physically, but also mentally, learning how to stay confident, disciplined, and resilient under pressure.

What type of college are you looking for?

I’m looking for a college that will challenge me both on the field and in the classroom. I want a football program with strong coaching, a competitive culture, and a team-first mentality where I can continue to develop as a player. Academically, I’m looking for a school that offers strong support and programs that will prepare me for life after football.
