Personal Statement

My goal is to help lead a college football program on and off the field from the QB position. To help achieve this goal, my family and I decided to have me enroll at Suffield Academy and repeat my freshman year of high school. I am now in the class of 2020. The outstanding teachers, coaches, and athletic program at Suffield Academy along with the school's highly rated leadership program and academics will position me well. In addition, my dedication to the game, willingness to be coached and participation in the 2016 US Army National Combine and 2015 Diamond All American Game will help me achieve my goal.
