How did the high school football season go overall?
“The high school football season went well. We were able to play some really good competition which was important for us as a young team. We were also able to get in the majority of our games in this season.”

What are your plans now with sports and workouts?
“The plan for me is to start with my wrestling season. Wrestling and football go hand in hand which helps all football players including myself. I will also still be working on getting stronger and more athletic.”

How do you feel your team will do next football season?
“I feel like we will take another great step forward. We are returning a bunch of our talent from last year and I know we will find some younger guys to step into some roles.”

What team do you feel will be the toughest competition on your schedule?
“It’s tough to say now, but I’d have to say McDowell or Cathedral Prep. Both of those programs are state powers year in and year out.”

Who is the toughest individual player your team will face off against?
“This is also tough to predict because so much of next year is based on what players do between December-July. I do know that we will play many good teams with good talent and playmakers.”

Do you want to play sports in college? If so, which one?
“I do want to play sports in college. It has always been a dream of mine to play at the next level. I would love to play either football or baseball, but it would be a dream come true if I had a chance to play both.”

What colleges have been recruiting you?
“My recruiting hasn’t seriously picked up yet, but the schools that I have had the most with have been the Ivy League.”

Have you made any college trips yet?
“I have not had a chance to make any college trips yet due to Covid-19.”

Do you have plans for any trips soon?
“My plan is to visit some schools in the spring and summer due to the dead period extension.”

Did you have a favorite college growing up?
“I’ve always had a special place in my heart for Pitt. My mom went to college there and I think it would be awesome to play for a major program in my backyard.”
