Roger Staubach once said,” Confidence doesn’t come out of nowhere. It’s a result of something…hours and days and weeks and years of constant work and dedication.”
Trevor has been doing that. This past offseason he worked real hard to get in the best shape of his life. “This past summer he dropped some excess weight and replaced it with muscle mass. He came in the best shape of his four-year career,” said head football coach Tim Savage.
Because of all that dedication, Trevor is making a difference this year.
This past weekend Trevor Whelski had 11 total tackles to help his team defeat previous unbeaten Tri-Valley, 28-14. “On Friday night Trevor broke our schools all-time tackling record.” The previous record was 377 which was held by Curtis Fry in 2001. “Trevor now has 385 tackles in his career.”
“He has been a starter at inside linebacker from day one for us. He’s been outstanding for us and is always in the right place.”
Trevor has started in 42 games so far in his career. “He is a linebacker with great instincts, he’s hard to block and is elusive and has a low center of balance.”
So far this season Trevor has 43 solo tackles, one interception, 12 tackles for loss and 76 total tackles to lead his team. “He has been the leader on defense for us since he was a sophomore. He makes all the calls.”
On offense the 5-foot-9, 185-pound fullback has helped pave the way for his teammates. He’s averaging 11.22 yards per carry and scored six touchdowns. “He’s paved the way for Cole in our two back set. He’s a tremendous blocker.”
So far in seven games the Vikings have rushed for 1,445 yards and averaging 6.72 yards per carry.
