How has the season been going so far?
“The season started off to a rough start. We lost two of our first three games, but we turned things around now. We aren't the same team now that we were those first three games.”

Who is your next opponent? What are your thoughts on them overall?
“We play North Mahaska, who is a team that's struggling pretty bad right now. We can't overlook them, but if we play the way we are able to we will be just fine.”

What do you feel your team can improve on?
“We can always improve on our discipline. At the beginning of the year, that was our biggest problem. We've come a long way since then, but it could still improve. Also, we can improve on being mentally checked in all four quarters.”

What are the keys for your team being successful going forward?
“For our team to be successful going forward, we need to make sure that we don't overlook any team that we face. We need to make sure that we continue to get better each week, so come playoffs, we are ready to take on anyone.”

Do you want to play sports in college? If so, which one?
“I really want to play college football. I am planning on making my college decision based on first, where I can get a good education, but second where I can be a part of a football team that feels like a good fit for me personally and athletically.”

What colleges have been recruiting you?
“I have a few colleges recruiting me. The main ones would be Drake University, Central College and Wheaton College.”

What school is recruiting you the hardest?
“I'd say that they're all about the same. Obviously, the ones I show more interest in begin to show more interest in me as well.”

Have you made any college trips yet?
“I have visited both Drake and Central.”

Do you have plans for game day trips this fall?
“I visited Central on a gameday visit a few weeks ago, and I am going on a visit to Drake. I would like to visit Wheaton sometime, but I'm not sure if I will be able to make it out there.”

Did you have a favorite college growing up?
“I grew up going to Iowa State games, so I am a huge Cyclone fan.”
