Update - Fountain-Fort Carson running back Mathias Price
How has everything with the football season been going so far?
“Everything has been going good so far, I’m loving my team and the energy that they bring every single day. This team truthfully brings me happiness and I love every single person on this team, they are the best team I’ve practiced and went to war with and there’s no other I’d rather be a part of.”

“No, I’m always trying to better myself, enough is never enough for me. My family would consider me an overachiever but there’s nothing better than holding myself to a higher standard.”

How do you feel your team has played?
“I feel like we’ve played well, but it’s not the best that we can do. I know that for a fact and there’s always something better we can do but it’s just the little things that we have to improve to slowly improve and become the team that we can be.”

What do you feel your team can improve on?
“I feel like we can improve on foolish penalties and just the controllable aspects of the game. We’re only going to fail if we let ourselves fail, so if we continue to learn and improve then we’ll be fine. But I’d say foolish penalties that we can control.”

What are the keys for your team being successful going forward?
“Discipline, responsibility, accountability, hard work, effort, relentlessness.”
