What have you been doing as of late with your workouts?
“This spring was busy with soccer. We ended in the substate final. Other than that, it is working out with the football guys.”

What have you improved on the most since football wrapped up?
“What has really helped me is my agility. I want to be able to recognize things better on the move. A lot of those things are hard to practice but doing them helps me get those skills.”

How do you believe your team will be next season?
“I know we lost a lot of guys but we have a lot of guys in my grade that are good. We know what it takes to win a championship. I feel we can go back out and contend again.”

What is the toughest game on your schedule for 2017?
“Grundy is a big one. Going against Dike is one of the biggest ones on my mind.”

Do you want to play football in college?
“Yeah, I’d really like to go into college and play football or soccer somewhere. Those are the two I’m looking at.”

What sport are you leaning towards
“Overall during my entire life, I’ve loved both. We’ll find out what sport is best going into college.”

What colleges have been recruiting you?
“I’ve went on a couple of visits. I went on a visit to Wartburg and talked to a lot of coaches for soccer specifically. I’ve also talked to the Drake coaches for football.”

What school is recruiting you the hardest?
“Right now, it would be Drake for football for sure.”

What camps are you going to this summer?
“I’d like to go to one of the Drake camps but I’ll be on my mission trip then. I was at Upper Iowa last year and I’d like to go back.”

Did you have a favorite college growing up?
“Growing up, I always liked the bigger colleges like Iowa State and Iowa. I have a lot of former teammates that go to Wartburg but as I have gotten older I am looking at colleges like that.”
