work, I have developed a champion mindset. This gives me an edge as I know I am ready
when called, and I am extremely confident in my ability. At this point, I don’t have to think, I
just do.
committed to UNC, my family and I have always been Duke fans. I grew up going to Duke
sporting events. My grandfather is an “Iron Duke” athletic supporter. I never owned anything
“Carolina Blue” until I committed. As a kid I refused to wear Air Jordans because Michael
Jordan played at UNC. Obviously now I am a HUGE UNC FAN! And now, my wardrobe is all
Carolina blue! GO HEELS!!

Favorite Motivational Quote: Instead of a quote that keeps me going, it’s a bible verse!

Like stated above, without God all things are impossible!

What makes YOU the best Long Snapper in the Country? I’m the best longsnapper in the country because of my accuracy, consistency, strength, and mental toughness. At the end of the day the #1 goal of the longsnapper is to put the ball in the punters hands 100% of the time, in any situation, and I feel like I do a perfect job with that. I’ve also never messed up in game and have won many competitions under pressure including the Adidas All American Bowl competition.
