What I love most about playing football is being part of a team that feels like family. I love the challenge, the competition, and pushing myself to get better every day. But most of all, I love those moments on the field when everything comes together.-when the team works together and make something great happen. Football teaches me discipline, hard work, I keep going even when it’s tough.
“My biggest inspiration on and off the field is my Mom, dad, grandparents from both sides, uncles, Coaches, and older brothers. On the field, they push me to give my all and remind me to play with heart, not just strength. I strive to set examples. Off the field, my family lead by examples working hard, treating people with respect, and staying humble. They show me what it means to be a leader, not just in sports, but in life.”
“One moment that made me the proudest was when I scored my first touchdown and made the game-winning tackle. I won MVP for my team. I’ve lead in championships in football, baseball and I’m rising in basketball. It wasn’t just about the play, but about the hard work that led up to it. I remember feeling like all the early mornings, tough practices, and times I didn’t give up had paid off. That moment reminded me why I love the game and what I’m capable of when I believe in myself.”
