I have always loved football for many reasons: because the game brought me relationships, I could participate in something I was good at, and it was extremely fun. But for me I tried to keep school my first priority. Not only am I a very good student, but I also diligently do what I am told. As my sophomore year played out, I was a small football player and didn't know if college football was going to work out. Then I grew 6 inches and put on 50 pounds to get where I am now. My Junior year I competed, and earned, a starting linebacker spot on the varsity team. After the season played out, I was voted defensive MVP for my team and even earned the honor of All-State Linebacker for South Dakota. I plan on improving my game and education even further my senior year. I work hard on the field to become the best player I can be, as well as off the field to become the best person I can be.
