About Carson

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

Hard-nosed player, throwback, plays middle LB now but can switch to Safety for college.

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

I dream of playing at the next level. I work year around with that goal in mind. I lift weights extra throughout the week and offseason when others aren't. During the season, I lift more than what is required to stay focused and strong for the season at hand. I do believe my hard work will pay off. I am a yes sir, no sir type of person that has the upmost respect for the game and my opponents.

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

I definitely lead by example. I do things the right way and earn respect of others to follow. I really enjoy working with young kids. I enjoy the youth camp my high school team puts on. I also enjoy helping coach my younger brothers' sports teams.

What type of college are you looking for?

I want to attend a college with a strong business program with a high job placement rate. I would like to help the football team contend and win championships.

The Winfield Generals had a tough opening round loss to Herbert Hoover, but 2027 LB Carson Samples Carson Samples Carson Samples 5'10" | 170 lbs | LB/ATH Winfield | 2027 State WV was all over the field on defense. He’s deserving of a spotlight for his play on defense with high effort pursuit of the football. Samples is an undersized but scrappy player that allows him to overcome those size concerns. He reads plays well and plays with physciality to get off blocks and get to the ball tenaciously.

Winfield has a strong linebacker corps this season, with 2027 LB Carson Samples Carson Samples Carson Samples 5'10" | 170 lbs | LB/ATH Winfield | 2027 State WV being one of their top players there. He’s totaled 36 tackles in four games this season for the Generals, while coming off a productive sophomore campaign, too. What he lacks in size, Samples makes up for with athleticism and tenacity at the position. He’s fast to the ball and is as quick laterally as he is vertically, which translates to quick pursuit. Samples does a nice job of dipping under and evading blocks that lead to his high production numbers.
