Personal Statement

I am a strong, smart athlete who is loyal and committed to being a great teammate and fulfilling the role my coach gives me. While I am a great athlete, I’m also a gifted student and leader. In April 2021, after a competitive application and interview process, I was selected to become a member of the Kentucky High School Athletic Association Student Advisory Group and attend the 2021 NFHS National Student Leadership Summit for student-athletes.  I love leading each team that I'm on to achieve our highest potential while having fun doing it! I look forward to hearing how I can bring my passion and enthusiasm for football to my future collegiate team.
