Our defense is definitely the strongest part of our team, they lift up the offense whenever we make mistakes.
What has been the highlight of this season so far? What is your best memory of the season?
The best part of the season thus far was being on the field for the victory formation against Benet.
What is the greatest challenge the team has faced this season?
Mentally preparing for our next opponent and not looking ahead, as well as maintaining physical strength throughout the season.
What would winning the state championship mean to you?
It would be a dream come true for all of us, it’s the only way to end our four years. If we lose, then nothing we’ve done means anything.
If you are a senior, what are your plans for next year?
I would like to play football at Olivet Nazarene University.
