Personal Statement

My team is much more than a group of guys I play with in the fall, they are my family.  We celebrate each other's successes and lift up those that need it when they are down.  I work every day in practice and out to make sure that I am becoming my best as a representative of my school and a key member of our team.  There is no position I am unwilling to play for the betterment of our team overall.  I am a natural leader and mentor but have also been told by several coaches that I am highly coachable.  You can depend on me to put in the work, get the job done, and give it my all on every rep regardless of the score.  Athletically, I am quick and light on my feet for a larger guy and have been the starting Nose Tackle on the varsity team for Royse City High School since my Sophomore year.  Going into my Senior year, I am looking for an opportunity to make some big plays on both sides of the ball.   I am not afraid to go head to head with the biggest of them and have learned that it is not just size and strength, but technique and the ability to read your opponent that makes for the best plays.
