Favorite Sport: "I would say football because of lessons I have learned from it and the brotherhood you get to form with your team."

Best Part of High School Sports: "The best part of high school sports is the great coaches who get to be mentors not just in a particular sport, but in life."

Best Advice from a High School Coach: "The most memorable advice I have from one of my coaches was from my basketball coach, Mr. (Don) Gruber. At the end of every pregame pep-talk, coach Gruber would say to us, 'Hold the rope.' It means that as a team everyone needs to do their absolute best because if one person isn't holding the rope, the whole team is let down."

Most Memorable Moments in High School Sports: "The most memorable moment in high school sports for me was winning back-to-back conference championships in football."

Best Part of Playing Three Sports: "The players and coaches you get to form great relationships with each season."
