1) Strong work ethic - going above and beyond, giving tremendous effort
2) Leadership - driving my team to a common goal, getting them fired up
3) Passion - I LOVE this game! I watch film all during the season and off-season
4) Attention to detail and strong study habits - I am a visual learner and envision the play and where I need to be
5) Rising to the occasion - being able to deliver when it matters most and not letting the pressure get to me
6) Character- I am humbled to learn from my coaches and peers on what I can do better to improve my game to help the team.

I have been told I'm very coachable and take direction well. I am a hard hitter that doesn't back down, no matter how big my opponent is. Fast & explosive - getting off the line quickly to make the play.

Defensively, I had 47 tackles switching between outside linebacker, defensive end, and inside linebacker. Offensively, I played tight end (with a great blocking year).  I also played on all special teams (including being the back-up long snapper).

- I am very proud of being on the Varsity team as a sophomore. My hard work ethic was rewarded by being named the Rookie of the Year for our team.
- My goal is to learn everything about the game and be ready when needed. I want the coaches to depend on me and know I will deliver.
- I want to continue to be a strong leader on our team. My goal is to help the incoming rookies so they can perform their best. I am striving to be one of the team captains as well.
- Of course I'd enjoy our team making it to state and will work hard with the players and coaches to try and make this a reality in my upcoming 2 years.

I am so excited about playing at the next level. I love this game and want to keep progressing my learning of it at a whole new level. I look forward to new challenges, new coaches and new teammates with new perspectives on the game.

In the classroom I have a 3.83 GPA and take mostly honors classes. In addition to playing on the Varsity football team, I am a starter on the Varsity hockey team (as a forward), play on the Legacy 7v7 State football team and play on my high school baseball team (catcher/outfielder).  I am also a catcher/outfielder for a travel baseball team (Portage Muskies).

While I have the internal drive to be my best, I also take inspiration from my grandfather, Milton Jan Schwantz, who played college football on a National Championship team for the University of Minnesota in the early 1960's when they went to the Rose Bowl.
