I know nothing comes free and I am willing to put in the extra time and effort to succeed. I have played on tournament basketball teams during the summers to stay in shape and traveled to many different states and played in many different tournaments. I have always wanted to play college ball whether it be Football or Basketball, I dont expect to start as a freshman but I am willing to do what ever I can to help the team succeed and if asked to step in as a Freshman I will make sure I am ready and capable of doing so. I am looking into a law enforcement field after college. This year I lead the state in rushing and second in the state in tackles in class A.
