2014 HighlightsPersonal Statement
I have been a starter for the Varsity team since I was a Freshman as the Kicker, Punter, Safety and Wide Receiver. I am ranked #10 as a kicker and 2nd as a punter in the class of 2017 by Chris Sailer Kicking. I competed nationally at Vegas XXVII in January'16 and was selected as a member of the Top 12 by Chris Sailer. I competed at Vegas XXVIII in May'16 and am the National Punt Champion. This season I was selected 2nd Team All-State, 1st Team All-Region, 1st Team All-Tidewater and 1st Team All-Conference.
I have lettered in two other varsity sports since entering high school; Indoor Track and Soccer. I was 1st Team All-Conference in Indoor Track as a Freshman, as well as, 1st Team All-Conference in Indoor Track in the Triple Jump, High Jump, and 4x200m relay, as a Sophomore.
I am an Honor Roll student, Chesapeake Scholar-Athlete and a member of the National Honor Society. I take Honors and AP courses in school. Academics are very important to me and I strive to improve my GPA everyday. My goal is to play football at the highest competitive level possible in college. I will do whatever my teachers, parents and coaches ask of me to achieve this goal.
