-placed in the top five defensive linemen at the VTO Sports Elite 100 (VA and MD) Football Camp.
Teammates and coaches who know me would tell you that I posses these qualities: 1. positive leadership; 2. good attitude; 3. strong work ethic in the weight room, in the classroom, on the field, and in life; 4. one of the strongest guys on the team; 5. perseverant; 6. tough; 7. hard worker.
I am a well rounded person, and I am involved in FCA, church, Bible studies, and youth groups. I am also the President of the National Honor Society at Loudoun Valley. In the classroom, on the field, and in life, I am a positive force and influence.
It's my dream to play on a great football program at a university where I can study Computer Science. Thank you for considering me for your program.
