What were your initial thoughts when the football season was postponed until the spring?
“At first, I was kind of pissed off as I don’t have any offers from colleges at all. However, I realized I can use this time to get even better than I was going to be at fall.”
What have you bene doing as of late with workouts?
“I follow this YouTube workout done by Jeremy Either workout routine. I do that with a few stuff added basically three times a week, with cardio on the off days.”
What do you want to improve on the most?
“I plan on to improve on speed the most. I plan on getting bigger and faster. I don’t like playing the offensive line, so I was planning on making a run at the tight end position. I also would like to stay a d-end, and never play linebacker so weight should be helpful.”
What would be your thoughts if the state changed their mind regarding fall football?
“I would be disappointed I want some sort of football scholarship in college. There’s no way I’ll get one if I don’t ball out senior year.”
What areas do you feel will be keys to having a successful run during the season?
“A solid offensive line as our run game wasn’t very good. Fortunately, the player who is probably the strongest player on our team is coming back so I think we may have a solid offensive line this year.”
What sport do you want to play at the college level?
N/A
Have any colleges offered you?
“No offers.”
Do you have any plans for college trips?
“Syracuse and the University of Maryland would be nice.”

Did you have a favorite college growing up?
“Nope, I wasn’t a sports fan growing up. I just became one more recently when I realized I actually had the potential to go division one.”
