My best G-R

Things you will miss about G-R: Being able to see my friends every day and playing all the sports that I was in.

Your role model and why: My dad because he loves the sport of football just like I do and how he pushes me to be successful in school. He never got the chance to play college football due to some injuries so I want to be able to play it for him. Also, he is just a really nice guy and cares about everyone, just ask around town.

Advice to underclassmen: Enjoy every moment of high school; the older you get, the faster the time goes to graduation. Seriously, it may sound like a cliche, but it’s true. Time flies the older you get, so enjoy it while you have the chance.

Future plans: I am going to further my studies and football career next year at Iowa Western Community College. I plan to get a business degree of some kind, and after a year or two there, I will transfer to a four-year school.
