Sione is an elite interior d-linemen for the Gaels. Sione has the strength to split double teams at the point of attach in the run game as well as the hip quickness and hand violence to put the pressure up the middle in the pass game. Sione is already committed to the Utah Utes and will look to disrupt opposing offenses down the middle all season long.
