About Leo

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I am very fast and agile but will also take a hit and lower my head if I have to. Also 100% a team player.

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

Very determined and will always give 110% effort in anything on and off the field. Always want to become BETTER on and off the field and work towards perfection in anything. I am a Very coach able kid and don’t just see black and white which means I understand both sides of everything. A word that would explain me would be versatile.

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

School academic awards such as like A honor roll and B honor roll. Catholic religion classes.

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

I have really developed teamwork and like understanding people. Teamwork because life teaches you that you can’t always do stuff by yourself and you need help from CHRIST, a peer, family member, etc to reach the absolute best version of yourself. I have developed understanding people because you need to always hear both sides of a story or just 100% make sure people trust you.

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

Eye surgery really affected me on and off the field. I had one of my optical nerves not attached to my eye (doctors believe from birth) that caused problems like a lazy eye and seeing two of things when my eye would look a certain way. This affected my life because I could not see the best. I overcame this by having surgery and multiple months of recovery.

What type of college are you looking for?

I am open to any college that really accepts people for who they are and really makes it feel like home. I am just a freshman but I have thought about going to school for nutrition or something involving sports because I would like to help people chase there goals just like my coaches are helping me. On the football side a college that strives to always become better is where I would call home.

Manson got his high school career off to a good start with 13 receptions for 149 yards and a touchdown as a freshman in 2025. He added 129 yards and a pair of scores on the ground. Three of his six tackles were of the solo variety. Manson’s ninth-grade highlight video features the versatile skill set that allows for contributions around the field. Speed and quickness stand out as top traits. He gets to top speed quickly and sharp cuts lose would-be tacklers. The Buccaneers move him around the formation, lining him up in the backfield or in the slot. He runs good routes and appears to have reliable hands.
