What have you been doing as of late with off-season workouts?
“During our past week we have been putting together our playbooks who we think are going to start and preparing for 7 on 7s as well as consistently working out.”

What do you feel you have improved on most since last football season?
“I feel as though I have improved on my speed and tackling. For both of those I am ready to combine and put them together to make some big plays.”

How do you feel your team will do next football season?
“I feel as though our team will be strong this next season, we were young last season and still are but it’s a good thing because now we have more people with varsity experience and we are ready to come out strong week zero.”

What team do you feel will be the toughest competition on your schedule?
“Our toughest competition for sure will be Regis or Pine Creek. These two are always hard to beat and we will be ready for them this year.”

Who is the toughest individual player your team will face off against?
“I feel as if there is no individual player that we are scared of. The team was worried last year about Austin in the vista game and look how that turned out we tore him apart in the first half there is no player we should be scared of unless he has a solid team to make him look better.”

Do you want to play sports in college? If so, which one?
“Yes I do want to play sports in college and I want to play football hopefully at one of three NDSU, SDSU or the Montana Grizz.”

What colleges have been recruiting you?
“Currently I only have an offer from Hastings but I have more coming after this summer with camps and my senior film.”

What school is recruiting you the hardest?
“I would say Northern Colorado has been recruiting me the hardest and I like the coach that DJ has drawn a lot of my interest by his energy.”

Have you made any college trips yet?
“No, I haven't made any official visits yet but I have seen Lindenwood and San Diego State University.”

Do you have plans for more trips soon?
“Yes I plan to go out to the schools I named earlier for camps and a couple visits during the winter. It should be great.”

What camps are you planning to do this summer?
“Same as the last question answered.”

Did you have a favorite college growing up?
“Yes growing up I lived in North Dakota and all my family had been to NDSU and since then I have always wanted to go there or have the chance to go bigger.”
