How has everything with the football season been going so far?
“Football has been going really well. This is my first year starting and I’m really excited for it.”

Who is your next opponent? What are your thoughts on them overall?
“We play New Castle in week 2. They’re a good team and have one of the best athletes in the WPIAL in Demetrius McKnight. It will be a fun to play against a team we have a lot of recent history with.”

What do you feel your team can improve on?
“Defensively, we’re a strong team. I don’t see many teams who can move the ball against us. Same on offense. We have some great receivers in Rossi and Audia, one of the best LT in the state in Dom Thomas, and a consistent runner in Drew Franklin. One area I need to improve on is finishing the drive. I struggled with that against USC and had too many turnovers.”

What are the keys for your team being successful going forward?
“One important factor for us this year on the offensive side of the ball is going to be pace. We’re a no huddle up tempo team that wants to score fast and wear down our opponent. If we can score fast, it makes everyone’s job easier when we can play with a lead.”

What are your goals for the rest of the season?
“The first goal for me is to help my team win another WPIAL championship. After the success we had last year and the talent that returned, there’s no reason why we shouldn’t be able to accomplish this goal. After Wips, I want to win a state championship. In terms of stats, I don’t really have a goal; it doesn’t seem important. As long as my INTS are low and we’re winning I’ll be satisfied.”

Do you want to play sports in college? If so, which one?
“Playing college football was always a dream of mine that started to come true a little bit this summer. After going to a few camps such as Slippery Rock and W&J, I realized that playing college ball could be a reality for me. I don’t know where I want to play yet, but I’m willing to play anywhere that gives me a chance.”

What colleges have been recruiting you?
“I haven’t been heavily recruited yet. I have gotten invites to different camps throughout the summer.”

Have you made any college trips yet
“I haven’t made any college visits yet.”

Do you have plans for game day trips this fall?
“I haven’t made any game day trip preparations yet.”

Did you have a favorite college growing up?
“I would say my favorite team is probably Penn State just from growing up in Pennsylvania.”
