Coaches comments: As our only junior captain on the team, Nick made all the calls in the secondary while also running the offense as starting QB and accounting for 28 TD’s.

He is a hard hitting defensive back who makes very good breaks on the ball and has continued to improve each season at running our offense.

He is also a consistent and reliable punter and we are looking for Nick to be an integral part of our success on the field for the upcoming season.

He is a great person, family member, student, and teammate.
