My Story
Wow what a senior season I made the move from playing DE/DT to starting all 14 games at LT on offense as a senior having only played Defensive Line since moving to varsity midway into freshman year . Having started since my sophomore season on varsity I was asked to make the move to the offensive line to help fill the need on our team. I was very apprehensive having never played OL at all having been a QB in 7th grade and TE in 8th and playing a 1/2 a season as a freshman before moving to varsity and since having only played D Line . However with the help from some great coaching and diligent work last spring and all summer I transitioned into the starting LT and made all district having only played the position 5 months . I am a realist and know if I want to continue to play O line at the next level I will have to move inside to guard or center and I am perfectly fine with that challenge and I feel I can do so at a very high level with time and great coaching the sky is the limit . But if I’m asked to transition back to the defensive side of the ball I am perfectly fine with that , maybe that year of playing OT can give me some insight on how to defeat a good o lineman with a different approach . All I need is an opportunity to take it to the next level in football while earning my degree. I hope you enjoy my highlight reel and want to get to know me and see if I fit the needs of your program . I am a big athletic football player who has a motor that has no stop , I will work hard in the classroom , hard in the weight room , on the field and do all that is asked of me by my coaches and hopefully lead your team by example . Thanks for your time
