What do you think are the keys to success on the football field?

The biggest key to success on the football field is communication, between coaches and teammates.

Mainly with a faith in God and what is happening is happening for a reason and I am meant to learn and grow from it, not dwell on it.

What would a team get in a player like you?

A team would get someone who is dedicated to the culture and dedicated to make my teammates better and do whatever I can to put our team in the best position to win.

What are you looking forward to in your upcoming season?

I am looking forward to making another run this year and helping my younger teammates progress.
