I have been a 3-year starter as a DE/DT at Santa Margarita Catholic HS in Orange County, Calif., no easy task in the Trinity League, the toughest in the country. Carson Palmer, our new head coach, has evaluated me and, due to my size and speed, wants me to be a two-way starter at RB/LB my senior year. I have been working toward meeting the expectations of my coaches and my own goals. I train 5-6 days a week, lifting and working with a speed trainer to meet my potential. I was team MVP as a freshman, Trinity League Honorable Mention as sophomore and won Dillanhunty Award as a junior. I'm at SMCHS because I want to measure up against the best -- Mater Dei, St. John Bosco, etc., and I am excited to dominate at my new positions during my senior year.
