After not being eligible to play my sophomore year, I made the decision to stick with my team, continue practicing, and support them from the sidelines. I knew I had a lot of catching up to do, both in the classroom and on the field, but I wasn't going to give up. I asked my parents to sign me up for D1 Training in Toledo, where I trained four times a week for several months, along with one-on-one offensive line training with a coach. Even though I didn't earn a varsity starting spot this year, I earned a starting position on JV, and my coaches have noticed how much I've improved. Being a younger junior, I know I still have a lot to learn and work on. This experience has taught me to be patient, stay dedicated, and keep pushing myself even when things don't go my way. My goal is to play college football, and I'm willing to put in the work to get there.
