About Finau

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I am a physical player that possess the speed/power that allows me to be explosive on the defensive side of the ball. Plays D-End and has the strength and physicality to play DT

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

I am of Tongan descent and have had a Polynesian cultural upbringing which highlights values such as Family Oriented, God fearing people who treat other with love and respect.

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

Level Up Elites.

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

Being the second oldest of 6 kids I’ve challenged myself to be a role model to my younger siblings through years of discipline and by leading by example from things like keeping up with my grades to making sure chores are done in a timely manner.

What type of college are you looking for?

Somewhere with the same values I have that can also guide me to being the best version of myself physically & mentally.

Finau is an elite prospect with an exceptional ceiling. He has great size and has excellent athletic traits. He is an excellent mover and a violent player. He shows good strength and has good lateral quickness. He has quick, violent hands, great off the line and is a handful to try to block. He can play any of the positions along the defensive line and he has extensive work as a running back where he is a brute force. He has the footwork and physicality you want to see in a power back and wouldn’t be surprised if he ends up as a short yardage back, but his future is on the defensive side. Elite prospect who will be coveted nationally and will garner offers from all the big P4 programs.
