I have been training in the weight room and running 5 or 6 days each week. I am benching nearly 300 pounds and challenge myself to get stronger with my dedication to weight training,exercise and healthy eating.  I strive to be actively involved in high school athletics including football,where I have been an all conference player on the varsity my sophomore and junior year, basketball, where I was rookie of the year on varsity my junior year,  and track, which I competed in as a junior for the first time and made it to sectionals in 3 events and was named MVP.  I also strive to maintain a high level of academics both in rigor and honor level grade point average. I spend summers going to football training camps where I have had many opportunities to learn from good coaches.   I have also spent 10 summers on a competitive water skiing and barefoot team which has increased my balance, strength and coordination.  I grew up near my grandfather's farm, which has given me many opportunities to be involved in hard, physical work splitting wood and bailing hay. I give 100% to all all teams that I am a part of as well as being the best student that I can be. I would love nothing more than to continue my pursuits in academics and athletics into my college years playing the sport I have the most passion and skill in - football.
