1: What was the highlight of your 2021 football season?
A highlight from last season was when we played our rival school Bowie high school and I got offered by Texas right before the game and I just went off. There was a lot of talking going into the game so I was already on 10 and that just set it off. Went for 3tds and 107 yards.
2. What was the biggest challenge you or your team had to overcome this season?
Going into the season my team had to overcome having a young team losing a lot of key seniors and building up a whole new offensive line. We ended up doing well with what we had as the season progressed but now they all graduated so we will have to do that same thing again next season
3. If you could give advice to an incoming freshmen football player, what would it be?

10. Why do you love football?
I love football because of the opportunity it gave me and my family even without that, It’s just an escape and problem solver for me. Got introduced to football at an older age and when I saw all the things it could do for me it just stuck.
