As a freshman, I played freshman football at Industrial during the 2019 season. My outstanding performance led me to being promoted to the varsity team as they entered the playoffs. I went 6 for 6 in my first varsity football game for the Cobras.
As a sophomore, I became the varsity kicker and started every game. Throughout the season, I connected on 62 of 66 extra points and 3 of 4 field goals. In the area finals, I hit a 34-yard game winning field goal with 8 seconds left to give the Cobras a 45-42 Victory, sending the Cobras to the Texas state regional semifinals.
Now as a junior, throughout the season I connected on 56 of 58 extra points, 3 of 3 on <29-yard FG's, 4 of 4 on 31–39-yard FG's, and 2 of 3 on 40–49-yard FG's. With 3 of my field goals and/or extra points, I was able to help the Cobras pull a victory in 3 of this year's games.
In the off season, I work with former Texas A&M kicker and kicking coach, Terry Derrick, which helped in dramatically improving my accuracy and leg strength. I have also transitioned from a 2" tee in my sophomore year to a 1" tee my junior year, in preparation for kicking off the ground my senior year. My longest field goal made this year was from 46 yards out, and my lone miss was on a 48-yard attempt that was pushed just wide right.
I understand the importance of education and its role in my future. I currently have a GPA of 3.4 and I am taking college courses to get ahead on my continued education beyond high school.
