Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

Growing up I was a big kid that would overpower anyone but now realizing that everyone is bigger than me I had to resort to different ways of succeeding. My speed and agility at OLB is what separates me from anyone else on the field. Being able to make a move on a pulling guard or tackle and still make the tackle is a special trait of mine.

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

Every time I step on the field whether it be football or baseball I try to impose my will upon the other team. Meaning, instead of doing all of the talking I would rather beat my opponent into submission and show why I'm the better athlete. I was raised to be coachable by no other coach but my own father and he was the one that made me see how important being coachable was.

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

no

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

I always work better off as a team which I think makes me into a good leader cause I try my hardest to pull everyone together.

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

Freshman year baseball season I was a very emotional kid. I had been thrown into a position I had never played before and I would always down myself on any mistake that happened. One night against our rivals I lost it on myself and was benched for the rest of the year. From that moment forward I had always been in a internal dilemma that I was later able to overcome.
