I want to continue to use my talents on the football field as a way to further my education in college. While I would prefer to play closer to home, I would be willing to go to any college that is interested in my skills and has a degree program that will support my ultimate career goals.
My flexibility and willingness to learn was evident this year as my coaches moved me to Cornerback, a position I had never played before fall practice began. I ended up starting all 11 games and over the year, the opposing teams learned to throw the ball away from my responsibility. At the end of the year, my player or area of responsibility ended up being targeted less than 15% of the time. I also ended up the fifth leading tackler on the team and was the DB with the most tackles and interceptions.
I am also a certified lifeguard and work at the local Community Center around my school and athletic responsibilities.
