Coaches Comments: Rory had a great freshman debut and was the first freshman in school history to rush for 1,000 yards in a season. He played multiple roles on defense at linebacker and defensive back and was an integral part of our team that made the District 11 finals. As a two-sport student-athlete, Rory finished his freshman wrestling season with a record of 30-5. We are counting on him to take the next step in his development as a football player and team leader.
