I have always loved the challenge of football. Every season, every team is different. I’ve grown in my skills since I started in flag football as a 5yrs old. The pandemic really showed me how much football meant to me. I gained perspective that having a team as family and getting to grow together meant so much. I love the combination of academics and athletics and how they tie together. I’ve always strived for strong grades and that’s also pushed me as an athlete to be a better person in every aspect. That Is what the sport of football is to me, challenging me to accomplish and push myself in every aspect of my life, knowing it can easily be taken from you. So each year I’m able to push myself harder and see now the hard work come to fruition.
